Dynamic DB Connection

[eluser]exodus7[/eluser]
The user guide shows you how to connect to the database manually like so:

Code:

$config['hostname'] = "localhost";
$config['username'] = "myusername";
$config['password'] = "mypassword";
$config['database'] = "mydatabase";
$config['dbdriver'] = "mysql";
$config['dbprefix'] = "";
$config['pconnect'] = FALSE;
$config['db_debug'] = TRUE;
$this->load->database($config);

you can set your variables to = what's in your session like so: $config['hostname'] = $this->session->userdata('item');

I'm no expert but If your looking to keep your clients db secure, I would suggest a different alternative than creating multiple databases - its a waste of time, $$$, and resources in my opinion.

Good luck in your project
