Hi there

I've been using mySQL just on my own computer hard drive while I've been learning and putting together a little app.

Now I want to try and load my app onto some web space. I've put all the client side and server side code up there and all I've got to do now is get my database files up.

The web host has phpmyadmin, so I thought I could use that, but I can't seem to work out how to do it. When I google a tutorial, the tutorial always ends up saying 'now upload the .SQL file'.

What .SQL file?

I'm looking in the mySQL folder in the Program Files on my c drive and I eventually come to a 'data' folder where there is a folder for each of the databases I have. In those folders, there aren't any .SQL files, but instead there is a .frm file for every table I've made plus one file called db.opt.

I would be very grateful if someone could tell me what I have to do with these files in order to get them up and running on my godaddy webspace.

Many thanks guys

Joe
