PHP and mySQL

[goughb]

Greetings,

I have a question does mySQL have a mac version of their software? Besides for OS X if not is there another database system that can be used with PHP?

Sincerely,

Brett

According to the PHP documentation online at http://www.php.net PHP supports several different databases. Here isan excerpted list:


Perhaps the strongest and most significant feature in PHP is its support for a wide range of databases. Writing a database-enabled
web page is incredibly simple. The following databases are currently supported:

Adabas D
Ingres
Oracle (OCI7 and OCI8)
dBase
InterBase
Ovrimos
Empress
FrontBase
PostgreSQL
FilePro (read-only)
mSQL
Solid
Hyperwave
Direct MS-SQL
Sybase
IBM DB2
MySQL
Velocis
Informix
ODBC
Unix dbm

Whether there is a MAC port for PHP, I don't know. Perhaps there is. You'd do best to check out the docs available at the php.net site.

I thank you.. Unfortunately I have not been able to find a php port for a mac.

Sincerely,

Brett
