    Question Free PHP & MySQL Hosting

    Hi,

    Does anybody know where I can get free hosting (preferably with no ads but it doesn't really matter) for php and mysql? As you have probably guessed it's for phpBB forums!

    I have already tried Lycos.co.uk

    Please move this post if it's in the wrong forum.

    Thanks for your time

    Don't think you will find any FREE MySQL hosting. In fact alot of hosting companies charge a little fee for a mysql database. There a few places that you can get free hosting for a basic site though.

    If you had a static ip you could host it yourself.....

    I did come across one earlier this year, but unfortunately I do not remember the name of it...and they did give free MySQL as well as PHP.

    Just a question, why did you stick with lycos? In my opinion they're the best free host.

    Lycos isn't really workign for me. When I try to enter the security code, it tells me that it is wrong each time I enter it correctly! Plus it has loads of ads!

    Yes, but someone must have wrote a JavaScript program that could stop popups from happening, that you could embed into the page to preempt or automatically close the popups....

    Also, the one that I found ealier this year had no ads, popups or otherwise.

    If they find out that your blocking their ads, they delete your site. What security code are you talking about $D$2?
