5,348 PointsOkay so up until I added the defining config file I was fine.
I never created an "INC" file. I am currently doing this all on sublime within a folder and yes it is running with mamp. Everything was fine up until I added the following, now its just timing out and not loading.
"mysql:host=" . DB_HOST . ";dbname=" . DB_NAME . ";port=" . DB_PORT,DB_USER,DB_PASS
I have another file in the project named config.file and it has this inside it.
define("BASE_URL","/");
define("ROOT_PATH",$_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] . "/");
define("DB_HOST","localhost");
define("DB_NAME","Databaseone");
define("DB_PORT","3306");
define("DB_USER","root");
define("DB_PASS","root");
What is causing this to "time out", not load.

5,348 PointsOkay I got it, I had to require("config.php"); in order for it to know that the
"mysql:host=" . DB_HOST . ";dbname=" . DB_NAME . ";port=" . DB_PORT,DB_USER,DB_PASS
were
define("BASE_URL","/"); define("ROOT_PATH",$_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] . "/");
define("DB_HOST","localhost"); define("DB_NAME","Databaseone"); define("DB_PORT","3306"); define("DB_USER","root"); define("DB_PASS","root");
In the config.php file. That should be mentioned.
