Java Database Connectivity (JDBC)

I'm connecting to a remote MySQL database using this code

        Connection con = null;
        try {
            Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver").newInstance();
            con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc://kylsoft.thhahost.info/kylsoft_mushnews", "user", "pass");
            if (!con.isClosed())
                status.setText("Successfully connected to MySQL server");
        } catch(Exception e) {
            status.setText("Exception: " + e.getMessage());
        } finally {
            try {
                if(con != null)
                    con.close();
            } catch(SQLException e) {
                status.setText("SQLException: " + e.getMessage());
            }
        }

I got the "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name too long" exception... I did some "research" and apparently... my URL is wrong...

Can sb tell me the right URL syntax?
