[thelist] PHP/MySQL Newbie question

Tue May 21 10:04:01 CDT 2002

Hi.  I'm new to PHP, moving from Cold Fusion and Zope.  In Cold
Fusion, to connect to a database, you need to register the database
with ODBC.  This does not seem to be the case with PHP.  How
does PHP see the connection to the MySQL database and
associated tables?

In Dreamweaver MX, I seem to make a connection to the MySQL
server, but no databases or tables show up.
