MySQL is one of the most used databases on the web. Web development environments as
diverse as PHP and Dreamweaver use it to provide dynamic web sites. Most professional web
hosting providers will provide MySQL databases as part of their hosting packages.
However, while programs like Dreamweaver make it easy to create simple database driven
web pages, they quickly throw you into an advanced mode if you want to do anything
unique or out of the ordinary.
This guide will show you how to use MySQL to access your data, so that when
Dreamweaver or any other application asks you to create your own SELECT statement, you
will know what it means and what to do.
