Dear Noble X:

     {I tried to email you but I failed, MISERABLY!!   My AOL Screen Name, Cyberbean, 
came with attachments, I hope this mail makes it through the border of all that is 
good.
Please Help!  Thanks!}


  I am lost.   I am a very VERY green newbie, and I am struggling on just how to 
begin.   Basically, I have bought a book, entitled, "PHP and MYSQL Web Development" . 
,  I have downloaded mysql-3.23.43.tar.gz, the install for windows document (yes I 
have not even made it passed the Install!   Oh I am PATHETIC!) says to use Setup.exe 
for windows.  The problem is I can not find that file anywhere.

  The bigger problem is, I do not know which 'platform' to enter any code in, and once 
entered, how do you run it as a web site???.

  I have been using FrontPage for my website, mothermachine.com (which is in a state 
of utter chaos) and found that I really do not like FrontPage.  My questionable quest 
began when I tried to authenticate my message base, and I discovered, after a few 
wrong turns and dead ends, this whole new world.

  Basically if any of you can help me out by pointing me in a direction for beginners, 
I will be ecstatic and will return the favor if I can, maybe by, once I learn, helping 
out another newbie.   I tell you, this message is a New Hope, if not a last resort.  I 
have been hunched over my computer for quite some time.

   I have Windows 98 on an older computer which I am using to experiment with code.  
Can you help?.  Thanks!!!

Jason Mintel
