Nope, proper permissions is the only requirement. MySQL listens on port 3306 by default. > 2) Can anyone tell me if MySQL allows the storage of BLOB data? Yes. > 3) What is a good resource for learning about PHP & MySQL 'together'? I learned both of them from the online manuals and a little help from the available mailing lists. Both have excellent searchable online manuals. -- Greg Donald http://destiney.com/ -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
