Thread: mysql user area

    I'm desigining a website using php/mysql which has user areas for clients to upload information and details into their respective user areas.

    Each user will have their own directory in the site based on their own database with the exact same tables, fields etc, the only difference is the 'connection.php' will be different for each user as it will connect them to their respective database.


    I then plan to have a login based on a members table which will redirect user/pass combinations to the relative directory.


    What i want to know is, is there a way that insteadof having seperate directorys for each user, when they login the respective 'connection.php' can be loaded for the user eliminating the need for directorys for eachj user.


    thanks guys

    Why would you need seperate databases for each user, why not use ids for each user within the same database. Depending how you program mysql is good for handling millions of records.

    This eliminates both seperate directories and seperate databases and makes it easier to improve things.
    Nothing to see here...
