khiles

thank you for all your help got it working ps: is there a better way to pull database details from another file ie include 'application/config/database.php'; $db = new mysqli('localhost','user','pass','data'); inside database.php is $db["default"]["hostname"] = "localhost"; $db["default"]["username"] = "root"; $db["default"]["password"] = "password"; $db["default"]["database"] = "database"; $db["default"]["dbdriver"] = "mysqli"; $db["default"]["dbprefix"] = ""; $db["default"]["pconnect"] = TRUE; $db["default"]["db_debug"] = FALSE; $db["default"]["cache_on"] = FALSE; $db["default"]["cachedir"] = ""; $db["default"]["char_set"] = "utf8"; $db["default"]["dbcollat"] = "utf8_general_ci"; $db["default"]["swap_pre"] = ""; $db["default"]["autoinit"] = TRUE; $db["default"]["stricton"] = FALSE; im not sure its possible but so i can put $db = new mysqli('["hostname"]',["username"]',["pass"]',["database"]'); Thank you again for all your help
