Self agrandizing whine

I know that this is not precisely perl, but I hope that one of you wise people would kick me in the head and point me where I need to be.

Useless background

I am writing an application for a website. Simple push up a form, read parameters, write to database, read from database, write dynamic webpage stuff.

I have it working just fine on my development system. Now I need to push it up to the remote hosted site.

Once there, the application runs without apparent error, but I don't think it is updating the database properly.

The actual question

On my development system, I would be checking my database inserts by using mysql to check the database directly, how do I do this on a site where I have limited command line access?
