  • great. But i have a question. If user forget his password then how can user recover his password?.plz tell me.

  • @dimple240 the way i do it, which is the easier way, is have a "forgot username/password" link next to the login. Clicking it will bring up a window that offers my contact info so they can either call me or email me with a "mailto:" link

  • i get to adding the database in phpmyadmin but then i select select in the database field and it says "an unidentified error occured" someone please help ?

  • @appleipsw what part in the video is this happening? i would suggest asking on expertsexchange. com (you can get 30 day trial i believe) or on the adobe forums somewhere. im sure there's someone that can help

see all

  • @appleipsw We can fix this! Okay here's the best solution to your problem:

    When you get to 5:30 in the video go to the bottom right and change "Local View" to "Testing Server."

    Next, complete the Database and Server Behavior steps like he shows.

    Last, change your server to "Local View" and upload all of the files. Dreamweaver will ask do you want to save the changes to the file that has your login/password? Say Yes. And then check your site (refresh it a couple times if need be)

    Okay now?

  • @appleipsw i get the same thing

  • @Cssvideosandtutorial where is your mySQL database located? is it part of your website's control panel or on a server like XAMPP or WAMP? Typically, MySQL connection goes like this:

    Connection Name: Whatever You Want to Name It

    MySQL Server: localhost (in most cases)

    User Name: The Username When You Log Into phpMyAdmin

    Password: Your phpMyAdmin that goes with above username

    -- Test Your Connection--

    Hit Select and Your Database Should Be There (could take a few seconds)

  • @dshmed I cant find datebase

  • @dshmed yes

  • @Cssvideosandtutorial when you add a mySQL connection,after filling out the fields does it work when you hit the test button?
