Mirage Source

Hi,
I got 2 questions:

1. I am using phpmyadmin as a sql server and i'm hosting it remotely at http://www.xynta.com, is that okay or do i have to install mysql on my pc?

2. Is this the same way as the "register and login" story with php?

I am currently trying Cruzn's ms 3.07 installation tutorial

If that host allows remote connections to the database, you should have no problems. However, if they don't, you will need to install MySQL on your computer. Most likely the host does not allow remote connections.

=P I've never heard that story. Chances are that your host allows PHP scripts, so you can access the database locally (locally as in the same host has your MySQL data on it.) if you put your PHP scripts onto that host.

If your host doesn't allow remote connections to MySQL then you will have to install PHP on your computer as well.

1. Thanks, that's clear now.

2. Yes, i meant just the standard way of register/login, make a form with user+password, send to a script that adds the data in the specified sql db, just to be on the safe side

It's just that the part of installing mysql confused me a bit.
Do i still have to insert that part of the odbc driver if i host it remotely? I know how to use mysql server with php ( guestbooks, content management, login/register-the basics ) but i don't know if it should make a difference using Mirage.

I saw somewhere a topic of a easier to use version of 3.07, but the link appears to be dead.
