Connect to a remote database using php?

[infernofiasco]

Iam using a basic php contact page.

The database is on my home server and when i post on the contact us form is works correctly.

When i upload the page to a php host, setup the database host details i get an error like:

Error accepting Query : insert command denied to user: '@localhost' for table 'contact'

Ive given all the priviledges needed to get it to work, but it wont shift!

In my php ive used <?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>

Could this have anything to do with it?
