My copy of PHP 5.0.0b1 has MySQL support disabled. In the release notes, it says that it has been disabled. How can I re-enable it? Would this require recompiling the PHP module?

Isn't it a simple matter of editing the php.ini file?
Well, it would be....however, because MySQL functionality was built-in to PHP in some past version whose number I forget, the external module that is linked in from php.ini was removed from the distro.
Perhaps going back to an earlier version of PHP (4.0.1 perhaps) I may be able to track down the php_mysql.dll file needed to easily add MySQL support. I should give that a try....
isn't it because
SQLite has been bundled with PHP. For more information on SQLite, please visit their website
sounds like they want to get rid of mysql as the native database.
bet that will change
