In reply to: XML Parsing Error : CDATA Tag open?Try looking for a non closed statement before the error line and also make sure you have closed the CDATA xml string properly. The erro could be on the line above or below It is also possible that you have extended charetors that need to be parsed. I have just spent te last two days writing and debuging my code. I ahve managed to test it against other datasources/editors (XML notepad) and a really neat php test option I found on the net. http://lastrss.oslab.net/
I still have not gpt my dataset to work with wordpress. But it now works with other xml editors…

In reply to: Connection error between dataserver and web serverThanks that is not the issue.
I can connect my localhost to the MySQL database which is great for off line live testing of the front end…
problem is that the host web serevr does not talk to the MySql database server.
It could be a pHp version issue if not then it is my provider. The twop serevrs are next to each other and in the same domain segment.
I will check again with my provider if no success I will change providers.

In reply to: Installation > Error establishing a database connectionFirst make sure you are connected to the database by trying to connect to MySQL via the MySQL administrator or some other database admin program. Check your user access privileges associated with the database you intend to use. you can try and create the datatables from your local machine is you have a web server running o a search on WAMP WordPress Installation I found a very good guide that stepped though it all step by step. I manage to get it up and working on desk top talking to a remote database server. No problem

Forum: Everything else WordPress
In reply to: Can this be done-Non typical use of WordPress?How long is a piece of string. You need to define your task. Why do you want a web server and why consider WordPress as opposed to developing code in MS Access or front page. It all depends on who how an when you need access to the data. yes I would say that word press could perform this task but it is not a plug and play solution other then for out of the box implementation.
If you want I can assist in fining you a programmer based in Ukraine who might be able to do the work required relatively cheaply but again it depends on what you need doing.

In reply to: Using db hosted elsewhereI have a two tiered system tech web site on one and the database on another location. If both are in close proximity then it should not matter. for example I can connect to my host database from a web server running as localhost on my development computer not problems. I had to configure the wp_config file to point to my db host IP as it was no longer on the servers localhost settings.
the only problem as I see it (and I have not resolved my problem) is that you need to ensure that the web server has access rights to the MySQL database server. In theory a server that has a dedicated function ie database server or a web server or a application server performs better then a system where all three functions are performed on the one server. More stable and better performance as the server admin can tune each server to best suit the task required.
BUT they must be located with a fast connection between each box. if you are looking at different service providers then the chances are you can get it to work but the performance will suffer as the web server needs to cimmuicat across the world to talk to the database then reply back to the user.
Hope this helps in making your decision
