I have been using php 4.3.11 and MySql 4.0.15 on a Mac G5 with Deamweaver 8, I just upgraded to CS 3 and got a new Intel MacBook and just put PHP 5 on it, but what version of MySql is recommended? I put on Mysql 5, but could not get it to work, and am wondering if i can get it off and go back to MySql 4.xx? Anyone? Thanks, Jay

MySQL 5 works just fine on a Mac. I don't have an Intel Mac, but you
need to make sure that you download the correct version. There are
different packages for PowerPC and Intel Mac.

Thanks, David. I have your PHP5-Flash 8 book and egerly await your newest. I installerd MySQL 5.027 for 10.4 intel which but it does not come up automatically and there is no MySQL control on the Preferences. I read somewhere that I have to open a file and change some lines of code in a config. file. Do you have any insight to that? Thanks again, Jay
