I think you're missing the question - you seem to be overcomplicating
things.
If someone else has a server with MySQL on it already, they will also have a
userID and password for that MySQL server. All you need to do is get that
information from them and use that information to connect to the database.
Provide a form that the user can enter his userID and password, and use
those values in the connect string.
