I know this isnt about Corsas hence general chat.

Can anyone explain to me the tools i need and the process of creating a MySql database which can be read from and writen to via .jsp pages. I don't grasp how the MySql exists and where it lies. Do i need to download something from the MySql website first or can I create "virtual" tables and records just by writing code, like, perhaps an array?

Thanks for looking.

http://www.mysql.com/ and get the binaries.

You'll probably want the MyODBC drivers as well to get data in to your JSP.

Yup, and look at MySQLAdmin to create the tables, etc - its a reletively nice GUI interface rather than command line stuff

It's a pain in the bloody arse!!

DOS I can handle, creating databases, tables, attributes, etc is just too damn long winded!

Command line is the best way, you learn alot more and you can see how it's all done, always take the harder option if you wanna learn stuff with PC's.... if you break it... you'll know not to do it again won't ya?? :-P

I've always used phpMyAdmin myself but then of course you need a web server with PHP capability.
