yes i know that. How? was my question.
How...what? How to setup MySQL? How to setup PHP? How to read the manual? How to work your own computer? You ask vague questions, and can only expect vague answers back.
and the manual.... have you seen how long that is?
Yes, which is what makes it a good manual. There is a reason why they give you a Table of Contents right at the very beginning. It's less than 2 pages long and all you have to read is the Installation section. After that, you can read how to create your own databases. You're making this way harder than it really is. You think you have to read the whole manual, instead of reading the sections you need help with.
when i looked under What is MySql? it says " MySql is a powerful database tool blah blah. MySql can do this and this and this...."
When you're trying to learn how to drive a car, what do you do? Ask first what a car is?
I decided not to frustrate myself for 8 hours on this,
No, instead you're asking someone else to chew your food for you, and have you swallow it. Like I said, if you took the time to even read the table of contents, you would've quickly found out which sections specifically you needed to read - it's very short and can be done within 10 minutes.
