I have a couple of shapefiles from which I can produce a simple map using Mapserver5.x w/PHP Mapscript.
I have converted the same couple of shapefiles to MySQL (5.0.48) where they become three tables resulting from using "shp2mysql.pl". I would like to learn how to use the MySQL database instead of the shapefiles. I'm not SURE, but from my reading of the limited tutorial/insights/how-to's, there doesn't seem to be a Layer|Connectiontype that allows PHP and MySQL to interact without OGR or Java. Is that a correct understanding? TIA. Dave Nuttall San Antonio, Texas
