no privileges to create database

[hehfest]

I'm not able to create a new database in MySQL. I did create a previous one, but now I can not create one due to it stating no privileges. I'm completely new to all of this so............

which mysql user do you use?
How do you connect to mysql for administration (phpmyadmin? command line? other tools?)
If you use phpmyadmin, can you access the priviledges tab?

xampp package
im using phpmyadmin
mySQL

does this help

i dont see a privileges tab anywhere

nevermind
i figured it out on my own
goodness gracious
feel so..................
i was logging in to phpmyadmin
instead of mysql
its the same prompt login
some reason i had the wrong one using
gosh
sometimes its right in front of us right?
