Before I started playing with PHP, I downloaded the DBI and DBD::mysql perl libraries and wrote some simple CGI code for pulling information from a mysql database and displaying it onto a webpage.I can't help a whole lot beyond that since my time constraints prevented me from getting too far, but I can probably post a little bit of sample code if you want to see how to get started... (Although my PHP scripts are for work and so they're all speaking Oracle -- the mysql stuff I've done on my MBP are written in perl).</blockquote>
