Unless specifically compiled to not have MySQL support, it is standard.
Check phpinfo() and see if the configure line has --without-mysql in it.
It probably does.
You have 2 options, recompile PHP (no need to recompile Apache since PHP
is a DSO (dynamic shared object) loaded into Apache when it starts).
Or second, build just the MySQL extension using: --with-mysql=shared
and load that into your PHP script at startup by doing dl('mysql.so'); in
your script or add extension=mysql.so to your php.ini file.
