Hello, I can connect to my MySQL database on a remote server, without error. But there aren't any tables displayed and I know that there are 11 of them. Has anyone had this type of issue? Help appreciated!

This happened with some databases in Dreamweaver 8, usually because of
illegal characters (such as hyphens or spaces) in the database or table
names. The 8.0.2 updater fixed the problem. After updating to 8.0.2, you
need to select Site > Advanced > Remove Connection Scripts. The next
time that you access the database, the revised scripts should be uploaded.

The Dreamweaver updaters are here:
