Created a mySQL database, how do I access it?

[Muze]

After creating a mySQL db on my server, I get a list of connection strings. There's one for PHP and for Perl also. Something like this:

 

Connection Strings Perl $dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:etc etc etc

 

Do I have to put this information in one of the OSC php scripts or something?

Its all taken care of automatically.

 

The connection is made in includes/application_top.php, which calls wrapper functions for mysql located in includes/functions/database.php.
