Hello,

I don't know much about mySQL but I want to start to work with it.
Can you tell me wich software I need to instal and how can I get them? A friend told me about working with toad and mySQL.
And to work with mySQL and PHP, wich software do I need?

Thanks for all your help.
 
For starters you need the Mysql server software, and the PHP software. You can go to each website and download them.

If you want to work with PHP web based you'll need a web server also.

Apache or IIS or whatever web server you like best.

I recommend you get each application by itself, and learn how to install them and configure them to interact with each other.

However, if you want to get a running start I would suggest one of the installer packages available, like XAMPP or EasyPHP depending on your OS. These packages contain Mysql,PHP,and Apache in a nice installer, so you can start using them out of the box.
