Ok dont laugh! :S
Im new to PHP, and i have started using and looking at how php works. Now when i look at some tutorials it says u need MySQL installed... ok 1) how do i know if this is installed on my server and 2)if it isnt how can it be done?
I have a few books arriving tommorow to help me along for the meantime, i love php it looks like such a helping hand when all i have been using is HTML and javascript..
Many thanks
Chris

run this script on your server
If there is a MySQL section, then you have it isntalled.
You DO NOT need MySQL to use PHP, it is good if yo do tho
Mark
Code: Select all
<?
phpinfo();
