I have two questions before signing up.
1) The basic plan mentions one MySQL database.  I assume that a database can have more than one table.  If so, why would I need more than one database?  Is there a limit on the number of tables?

2) I saw something in the FAQ's that scared me:
-----------------------------------------------
How much do you charge for script installation?
  We charge $24.95 per script. You supply the script.
------------------------------------------------
I hope that doesn't mean that every time I want to upload a new perl cgi script I have to pay $25!  
What does this mean?

Thanks in advance,
Elliot Katz

Hi

You would need two databases if you wanted to install two copies of the same script. It's just to avoid overwriting tables.

You can put more than one script on one database, as long as the table names are different.

You can upload scripts for free!

It's just if you want someone from lunarpages to do it for you that it costs.

ekatz,

On another host I'm moving away from, I have 3 message boards and that run off one database.  Each board uses a different "user" on the base and the tables have a slight name change, usually I add the first 2 letters of the mboard name.  I'm not sure how many users Lunar allows per database, but the other place allows 3.
