mysql connect on diff site

How can i connect to a database on a different site?
As in.. i have thebestsite.com, and i want theworstsite.com to connect to my database.

Isnt the connect usually localhost, user, password? Or do i change local host to something... I really dont understand it unfortuneately.
Thanks

you can, but you need to know the port of the mysql server in thebestsite.com
like this:

PHP Code:


			
mysql_connect('thebestsite.com:2095', $user, $pass)or

die(mysql_error());

you need to know the port..
