Re: [PHP] mysql_connect noob question

Even more strange:

It doesn't work from the form with or without the domain (but on the 
command line it does), but......

IF I add the $_REQUEST access *and* use the user that the *MySQL* 
install has, and *not* the xeround user name (my email), then it *does* 
work!

WEIRD.
