Hello everyone !

I am absolutely new with mysql and php. However, I still made it to set up and customize phpWCMS on my shared webspace without any problems so far.

I have only one mysql database available. I would like to set up some additional php scripts, like this phpBB or a link managing script that requires a mysql database.

Regarding this, I have a question.

Is it possible to set up different php scripts, when each of them requires a mysql database with only one mysql database? I guess if it's possible, that every script needs a different pre_fix - am I wrong?

Thank you all in advance !

Matthias

Hi rushclub,

thanks / danke !

It helped for my phpWCMS understanding. Is it generally the case, that one can use a prepend for a new php script or is it only possible with WCMS?

every good script should support prepend table names. but it is not supported every time. it depends on the program.

cheers
