Invoking MySQL without a username or a password defaults to the current login and no password:
perl -MDBI -we'my $dbh=DBI->connect("dbi:mysql:","","")'
DBI connect('','',...) failed: Access denied for user 'ben'@'localhost
+' (using password: NO) at -e line 1
...and there doesn't seem to be any way to force it to accept a blank username, either:
mysql --user="" --password=""
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'ben'@'localhost' (using pa
+ssword: NO)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
