Hi,

Just wondering, is it possible to access a mysql database from another website. I have like 1 website and I want to create a new website with using the same database on a different domain. (I dont mean to dublicate, import, export, but really use the same) Is this possible?

No need to know how to, but just need to know if its possible.

Thanks in Advance,

yes,

as long as the other domain has the server IP, username, password, and DB name it will be able to connect

some hosts have a firewall so the ip of the other server that the domain needs to be added in the remote mysql list.

Plus, your MySQL server must support remote calls.
