My host has given me one mysql database. I'm using it for a vbulletin forums script. Can I use this database for other scripts? (site search etc.)
too much information

sure, just create different tables for your data, then reference the table you need in the same database.

You can use one database to run as many scripts as you like. You should find that the vBulletin tables have a prefix before them, this is to make sure that there are no problems if you use a script with the same table names.
If you use other scripts with no table prefixing function, you may get a clash. Otherwise you should be ok, just give each script a unique table prefix.
