    To access your x10hosting MySQL database from your x10hosting account, you use "localhost" (without the "quotes")
    Nothing is always absolutely so.

    Use "localhost" for your database host name in your applications. Note that there is no option to remotely connect directly to your database on the free hosting servers (connections must come from x10hosting's web servers), so the actual physical address of the database server doesn't matter; the virtual links in the system will resolve the address properly for you if you use "localhost". (It also means you don't need to make any adjustments if you are running an XAMP stack on a machine at home for testing, such as WAMP Server or XAMPP.)

    Note that the information is available in the X10 wiki MySQL connection information article.
    Be sure to read all pages linked in this post; they have further information that should prove useful. When asking for help, make sure you follow Eric Raymond's and Jon Skeet's guidelines for prompt, accurate responses. Please answer any questions I ask; they're not rhetorical (probably). Any posted code is intended as illustrative example, rather than a solution to your problem to be copied without alteration. Study it to learn how to write your own solution.
