Another good tool for administering MySQL databases is phpMyAdmin. It is a
browser based admin tool and you can get it from www.phpMyAdmin.org . I have
been using it for about a year and I really like it.

Hello all.
I am new to PHP having used ASP for some time. (Seems a lot of us are moving
this way)
What I'm stuck on is this;
I need to build a DB in MySQl and then use PHP to display it.
My question is how you get a test environment working on XP Pro.
I understand how to call up a database table from say Access because you can
develop the DB using Office then use SQL strings to call it using ADODB
connections.
How though do you make a MySQL database in a windows environment? Can it be
done or is it done in Unix or Linux? If so are there any windows based
programs to develop a MySQL database?
I've been to www.mysql.com and downloaded the software for XP.
So how do I use it? I ran the set-up prog and nothing seemed to happen.
PHP - can you configure IIS to run PHP? if so how?
Sorry if these questions are totally obvious to you all but I've been online
searching for a couple of hours without any answer to these questions. I
might be asking the wrong questions. I hope I am anyway!
Thanks in advance.
Steve.
