Hello,
My question will probably sound a little idiotic.
How does one connect to a database? There is a web site that I am supposed to update and now they told me the site was moving to another server so I have to deal with MySQL databases and move my database from one server to another.
The address of the database the site is on is simply 'localhost'. I already read a lot of stuff on the web and learned how to run easyphp for example on my machine's localhost but I am unable to go online, connect to my website's server. A quick answer would help a lot since the server the website is on is closing in a week or so.
Thanks in advance.
