[thelist] Re: hiding a URL via a frameset

[Jason Sweeney]

Rather than hosting the whole application on your site, why not just 
connect to the database remotely from their site -- mysql_connect can 
connect to a remote database server just as well as a local one. (You 
may have to set up the mysql server to allow connections from that 
site.) Then, you can happily ditch that frameset and just have the 
application on their page.

You will need to tighten the security if accessing a remote server. 
Here's a random helpful link:
