sudsy1970 Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 hi all, quick question which i hope is easy to answer. I am developing my site with the aid of apache on my pc, when it is working here i will upload it to my hosting site. the daatbase connections will be different so can i write them both into my file, or will this cause an error ? Cheers for a quick answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoogie Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 I assume you have one file that you use to connect your database and you just include that file in your other pages when you need to connect? If so, I think it would be easier just to keep separate connect files - one on your development PC at home and one on the live server. It is probably possible to write a conditional statement to change the connection information depending on which server you're on, but I think it would be simpler and less confusing just to have two separate files.
