all we know the MySQL connect string ( PHP script ) would be :

mysql_connect("localhost", "username", "password");

but some of the web-hosting like F2S would be :

mysql_connect("servername:port", "username", "password");

other else ??

I believe that should do it.

Looks good. Don't forget when in doubt to refer to the online manual at www.php.net It is the best online manual I've ever come accross with a quick search facility to quickly look up the documnetation by funciton name. Also the annotated manual is full of user contributions from which I continue to learn new things :)
