SQLitemanager where does it go?

I am new to this whole arena and have a basic question.

I trying to find out if my current ISP will host things that work in PHP I have come up with another question. My ISP does not host MySQL, but can I use SQLite? I am not going to need full 'relational' type database, just some fairly flat data.

Since SQLite is not really a server, where does it go on my PC and on the host site so that PHP can see it?

Thanks,
Fred :lol:

It doesn't go anywhere, you specify path to sqlite db file when creating sql 'connection' using sqlite_open().

So it only exists in the PHP code that calls and creates it? Right?

It exists as a file on disk (unless you're creating in-memory database, which is also possible).
