Have you got PHP working fine with Apache?
You'll need to edit the httpd.conf file if not. Post back here otherwise.
MySQL is a database, like MS Access but better
PHP can communicate very easily with MySQL for building powerful applications. Like this forums for example, written in PHP, backed by MySQL which stored all the threads etc.

Do you know of a good source for tutorials?
I want to find something that guides me through on how to link all files together, compile everything, putting everything on the web, etc.
I look at all these files for mySql, php and apache2 but i know nothing on how to make them work TOGETHER.
httpd.conf

i think all the mentionned projects have a vs-c++6.0 (n)make file too. not too experienced with windows and compiling those apps...
but, imho, the gentoo fora are a great resource in case you have any problems compilling on a linux platform.
