1 database, multipule apps

I've heard this can be done. Just not sure how to do it. I have a forum application that is using my 1 mysql database that's given to me by my host. They only allow you to create 1. How can I use that database for a seperate application. I want to create a new forum on the same site. Does it have something to do with the way I name the tables for the new db?

Thx in advance for your help!
Matt

As you've heard, being limited to a single database isn't a problem. You could put as many tables within a database as you wanted. They would all be independent entities and you should be able to configure your applications to access only those tables that are relevant to the app. So yes, it does depend on the names.
