Hi all because my company is using iis, i cannot d/l a package tat have php, mysql, apache all in onr together. i have to individual install php 5 & mysql on my cpu. Both works, but php cannot “talk” to mysql. so do i need to configure some setting to enable php to link to mysql or vice versa.

tks for reading.
