[RESOLVED] Deploying a PHP / MySQL website

Are there any guides out there for deploying a web site which uses PHP and MySQL?

I have a developed a web site but only have it running locally on my dev machine. I plan to sign up with a web host for a shared hosting package but I'm wondering how I got about getting the site up and running onto the web hosts server? Am I right in thinking that the database can be scripted and those files can be run on the web hosts server to create the DB, using PHPMyAdmin (or a similar tool)?

Thanks

Uploading the PHP files is straightforward.
As for the database, what I usually do is write a SQL script that creates the data schema and then import it using mysql (if you have terminal access) or phpMyAdmin.
If you have content in your local database that you'd like to upload, you can use mysqldump to generate a SQL script file, and then import that.

Many thanks penagate,

Cheers
