both statements are false :p




php was created because rasmus had a website
and mysql was created because msql wasn't good enough

php works pretty well with any of the database APIs it supports. The fact that php4 came with MySQL built-in, helped push MySQL into "default" usage, as people are often too lazy or scared to change things, when one is provided by default.
