Solve : How do I find my host??

Answer»

First, I don't know how to find my host. (www.herbertsworld.com is my website)

Then, I do not understand what this php item means:

$host = 'localhost';
$USER = 'root';
$pass = '';
$DB = 'yourdb';

Please help me!  If the site is on a shared server, which is more than likely the CASE, then the host is "localhost".

This is usually used for connecting to a database. If you do not use a database, then you do not need that code. those are the PARAMETERS to your online DB.
common use of db are:
forum
blog
shopping
any thing that needs data storage, that is DB.

They are allowed only for long-standing members.As stated above, you only need those if connecting to a database.  You web host is whoever is hosting your website such as godaddy.  If you are hosting it on your own COMPUTER, your computer is the host.
