First create database in cpanel by Mysql Database Wizard.......
then define username password in your file eg.
<?php define('DB_HOST', 'localhost'); define('DB_USER', 'your_db_username'); define('DB_PASSWORD', 'your_password'); define('DB_DATABASE', 'your_db'); ?>

You'll just need to use localhost. You can only connect from scripts running within your hosting account, however. Remote MySQL connections are not enabled on free hosting.

Then why are you posting? Don't post if you're not going to contribute.

For everyone else, the only documents you need are the one Gouri linked to and "MySQL Information".
