both statements are false :p




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

but is it true that the combination of php and mysql is very good, like they are meant to be made for each other? :lol:

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.
