Update Database Configuration: In the PHP code for the chat website, locate the
database configuration section, which includes variables like $servername,
$username, $password, and $dbname. Update these variables with your MySQL database
credentials: the server name (usually "localhost"), the MySQL username, the MySQL
password, and the name of the database you created in step 4.

Create Database Tables: In the PHP code, you'll find table creation statements for
the users and messages tables. These statements are executed when the PHP script
runs for the first time. If you're using the provided code, the tables will be
created automatically if they don't already exist.

Test the Connection: Save the PHP code in a file named chat.php and place it in the
htdocs directory of your XAMPP installation. Open your web browser and go to
http://localhost/chat.php. The chat website should now be connected to the MySQL
database. You can sign up, log in, and use the chat functionality.

By following these steps, you should be able to connect the chat website to a MySQL
database using XAMPP. Remember to ensure that the MySQL server is running, the
database credentials are correctly configured, and the tables are created as
needed.
