mysql connect from another domain

[desithugg]

umm the problem is i cant get it to connect to a db on my other website
[code]
<?php
mysql_connect("www.t****g.*******.com", "*****", "******") or
   die("Could not connect: " . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("tpf");

$result = mysql_query("SELECT thing FROM signup where username = 'desithugg'");
if (!$result) {
   echo 'Could not run query: ' . mysql_error();
   exit;
}
$row = mysql_fetch_row($result);
$thing = $row[0];

if ($thing == "") { $thing = "None"; }

echo $thing;
?>
[/code]


i think its because i cant get it to grant access to the webiste i used this query
[code]
GRANT ALL ON database. * TO '*******'@'www.t****g.******.com' IDENTIFIED BY '*******'
[/code]

when i execute that GRANT query it gives me
[code]
#1044 - Access denied for user '******'@'localhost' to database 'tpf' [/code]
it keeps denying the query but the username and password is right

It's possible you don't have GRANT permissions; is this DB on the same machine?

It's possible that the host has not permitted non-localhost connctions -- that's why I asked if they were on the same box or not.
