Fehnris Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 You would need to have access to a webserver hosting a MYSQL database. Alot of web hosting companies offer MYSQL as part of the hosting package. You havent stated in your post whether you website is running on a webserver that you own or if its with a hosting company.If your website is hosted with some hosting company, it might be worth checking with them, if your hosting plan includes a MYSQL database.If its your own web server, you can download and install MYSQL relatively easily from [url=http://www.mysql.com]http://www.mysql.com[/url] Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/22190-php-website-involving-flash-an-access-database/#findComment-99426 Share on other sites More sharing options...
