the actual db file i am using on the 1and1 server is this i have changed username and password. the one on my local xampp test server is the one at the top of the page with localhost //Setup Our Connection Vars $obj->host = 'db1222.oneandone.co.uk'; $obj->username = 'username'; $obj->password = 'password'; $obj->db = 'db361371865'; //Connect To Our Database $obj->connect(); hope this helps, thanks again.

hi all, i have a test server (newest xampp) and the code works fine, as soon as i upload to 1and1 (they use apachi, php and mysql) i get this message: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) i have double checked username and passwords, had a look on google, contacted there support with no luck yet. i am wondering if its a mysql or php version problem, so hoping someone knows when the following code with classes etc was added or if someone knows how to fix it i be really greatful. heres some of the code i am using class cyberglide { var $host; var $username; var $password; var $db; function connect() { $con = mysql_connect($this->host, $this->username, $this->password) or die (mysql_error()); mysql_select_db($this->db, $con) or die(mysql_error()); } function get_top() { if (isset($_GET['page'])) { $page = $_GET['page']; // Display Page. $sql = "SELECT title,body FROM content WHERE page = '$page' AND location = 'left' AND disabled = 'no' ORDER BY id"; $res = mysql_query($sql) or die (mysql_error()); while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res)){ echo '<h1>' . $row['title'] . '</h1>'; echo '<p>' . $row['body'] . '</p>'; } } else { //Show Home Page $sql = "SELECT title,body FROM content WHERE page = 'home' AND location = 'left' AND disabled = 'no' ORDER BY id"; $res = mysql_query($sql) or die (mysql_error()); while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res)){ echo '<h1>' . $row['title'] . '</h1>'; echo '<p>' . $row['body'] . '</p>'; } } } function get_left() { if (isset($_GET['page'])) { $page = $_GET['page']; // Display Page. $sql = "SELECT title,body FROM content WHERE page = '$page' AND location = 'left' AND disabled = 'no' ORDER BY id"; $res = mysql_query($sql) or die (mysql_error()); while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res)){ echo '<h1>' . $row['title'] . '</h1>'; echo '<p>' . $row['body'] . '</p>'; } } else { //Show Home Page $sql = "SELECT title,body FROM content WHERE page = 'home' AND location = 'left' AND disabled = 'no' ORDER BY id"; $res = mysql_query($sql) or die (mysql_error()); while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res)){ echo '<h1>' . $row['title'] . '</h1>'; echo '<p>' . $row['body'] . '</p>'; } } } }//Ends Our Class db file //Setup Our Connection Vars $obj->host = 'localhost'; $obj->username = 'root'; $obj->password = ''; $obj->db = 'db361371865'; //Connect To Our Database $obj->connect(); many thanks all.

'</p>'; echo '</div>'; } else { //Show Home Page $query = "SELECT body FROM content WHERE page = 'home' AND location = 'left' AND disabled = 'no' ORDER BY id"; $results = $base->arrayQuery($query, SQLITE_ASSOC); $arr = $results[0]; echo '<div id="left">'; echo '<p>' . $arr['body'] . '</p>'; echo '</div>'; } hope you understand what i am trying to say, thanks very much all.
