Additional info/tutorial on using external databases

I noticed there are a couple of plugins that connect to external data base (Instant Database App and Easy Form) However I haven't find any detailed tutorial on how to make the connection with these hosted databases. Is there a tutorial on how to do this? Chris1 and Angry Ninja, if you could please let me know if you have such tutorials. Also, could any of the developer PLEASE, PLEASE create a plugin that work with a local data base? I am sure it would be the highest selling plugin here, because there are so many things you can do with such a plugin. Thanks Jorge

Hi Jorge, Instant Database App includes full documentation that explains how to connect to the remote database. It' as simple as uploading your files, and editing 5 lines of code in the constants.h file included in the plugin. The plugin takes it from there and does everything else :)
