$connect = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass);

error comes up like the fellowing. username & pass arent wrong its the host name i just dont get currently.

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Unknown MySQL server host 'mysql.x10hosting.com' (1) in /home/matt88e/public_html/game/index/signup.php on line 10
Could not connect: Unknown MySQL server host 'mysql.x10hosting.com' (1)
