pretty much any isp out there will not let you connect directly to their mysql database. if they do, i'd be concerned about their security consciousness. Fortunately for you, dreamweaver (well, MX and up anyway) does exactly what you're looking for. when you configure a mysql database in DWMX, rather than trying to connect directly which rarely works, it actually uploads a few small php scripts to the site and proxies all requests through them. The one thing to keep in mind, in that case, is that you will be setting the host to the host you'd normally use in a server side php script (namely, localhost).
for the record, i do have an (mt) shared account, and i do use this.
