Ok here's a dummy question from yet another newbie: Reading the instructions for enabling the MySQL Functions, I understood until i get to this: "For compiling, simply use the --with-mysql[=DIR] configuration option where the optional [DIR] points to the MySQL installation directory. " i have a windows XP Pro OS, and im working with Apache Server 2.0 and PHP 5.0, I've never heard about compiling in Windows, so I don't know where to put the --with-mysql[=DIR] line, I suspect this is an instruction only for Unix users, if not please help me so i can start developing php pages for accesing MySQL databases. -- "Too much fantasy loses reality, too much hope may seem somehow empty" -Toriyama Akira
