I am new to PHP and MySQL. I am using windows XP OS. I have installed the Apache server, MySQL and PHP5. When I run "localhost" it shows that the apache sever is running. I can run a test which shows that PHP and Apache work together. I have SQL running and I can create databases, etc uing the command prompt or the MySQL Admin program. But I cannot get PHP5 to connect to the databases. What am I doing wrong? Help is very much appreciated.

locate your php.ini file which is most probably located in either the windows folder (C:\WINDOWS), the system folder (C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32), or in your php folder.
Find and set this...
extension_dir = "C:\php\ext"
Find and uncomment this...
;extension=php_mysql.dll
restart server, reboot, etc...
