Well, you changed the first \` to a \" which will generate the same error.
You must balance your quotes around localhost, so try "localhost" or 'localhost'. Whatever quote you use must be the same to start + end localhost.
Reread Shaun's comment carefully again. He suggested you change the leading \` to match the trailing \' around localhost.
