Introducing MySQL
In Chapter 1, we installed and set up two software programs: the Apache web
server with PHP, and the MySQL database server.
As I explained in that chapter, PHP is a server-side scripting language that lets you
insert into your web pages instructions that your web server software (in most cases,
Apache) will execute before it sends those pages to browsers that request them. In
a brief example, I showed how it was possible to insert the current date into a web
page every time it was requested.
Now, that’s all well and good, but things really become interesting when a database
is added to the mix. In this chapter, we’ll learn what a database is, and how to work
with your own MySQL databases using Structured Query Language.
An Introduction to Databases
A database server (in our case, MySQL) is a program that can store large amounts
of information in an organized format that’s easily accessible through programming
languages like PHP. For example, you could tell PHP to look in the database for a
list of jokes that you’d like to appear on your web site.
