1: "die()" will exit the script and show an error statement if something goes wrong with the "connect" or "select" functions.

3: A "mysql_select_db()" error usually means the database does not exist.
*/
// Place db host name. Sometimes "localhost" but
// sometimes looks like this: >> ???mysql??.someserver.net
$db_host = "scrossbuilder.db.8778708.hostedresource.com";
// Place the username for the MySQL database here
$db_username = "scrossbuilder@72.167.233.37";
// Place the password for the MySQL database here
$db_pass = "**********";
// Place the name for the MySQL database here
$db_name = "scrossbuilder";

// Run the actual connection here
mysql_connect("$db_host","$db_username","$db_pass" ) or die ("could not connect to mysql");
mysql_select_db("$db_name") or die ("no database");
?>

I hope this is all you need if not please let me know. Thanks

Your code does give you a little hint.

2: A "mysql_connect()" error usually means your username/password are wrong

Are you sure your username should look like this: scrossbuilder@72.167.233.37 ...? Try removing the @72.167.233.37 part.
