how to configure PHP5 to use MySQL in Windows XP

[R.A.M.]

I use PHP5 in Windows XP Professional with Apache and MySQL installed. I
would like to use MySQL. Now, I cannot use mysql_* functions because
mysql_connect(. ..) returns
Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect()
PHP is problably not correctly configured to use MySQL. I think so, because
when I open:
localhost/phpinfo.php
I receive no information about MySQL.
So far, I have modified c:\windows\php. ini:
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;;;;;;;
; Dynamic Extensions ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;;;;;;;
extension_dir = "c:/windows"
extension=php_m ysql.dll
extension=php_m ysqli.dll
extension=libmy sql.dll
But it is probably not correct or not enough, I suspect. All *mysql*.dll
files are in c:\windows folder.
Could you help me plase?

did you restart apache after changing your php.ini file? If your
running php as a module you need to restart.

Yes, I rebooted my computer. Still, the same problem.

I *hope* You didn't install PHP into Your Windows directory...

extension=php_m ysql.dll
extension=php_m ysqli.dll
extension=libmy sql.dll

files are in c:\windows folder.

Install Your PHP into separate directory as intended.
It may be C:\php or whatever You prefer.
Point the extension_dir to the C:\php\ext (i.e.) where all extensions is
located.
