Below is a sample PHP code, that after configuration, can be used to connect to your database.
<?php $DBType = "mysql"; $DBHost = "database-host"; $DBPort = "3306"; $DBEnco = "utf-8"; $DBUser = "database-user"; $DBPass = "database-password"; $DBName = "database-name"; try { $DBCon=new PDO("$DBType:host=$DBHost;port=$DBPort;encoding=$DBEnco;dbname=$DBName",$DBUser,$DBPass); $DBCon->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE,PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION); // Connected } catch(PDOException $DBError) { // Not Connected echo '<strong>'.$DBError->getMessage().'</strong>'; exit; } ?>
