Please forgive my newbie question.
I am a non-programmer who has gotten interested in using php and mysql on a web site. The practice tutorials have been productive and an excellent teacher. However, I notice that one's password is included in the php file in order to access the database. Is this password safe? Are there any steps that one needs to take in order to insure its safety?
Thank you
Tom
