PHP Bug Type:     Documentation problem
Bug description:  FAQ. Incomplete MySQL enabling comments.

Description:
------------
67 Database Issues.

When enabling MySQL on a Windows box the Docs/FAQ correctly state...

Windows users may enable the extension php_mysql.dll inside php.ini.

... and then how to add the PHP directory to the PATH variable. Upon doing
so and rebooting, PHP fails to start stating that php_mysql.dll cannot be
found.

This is because the .dll is in the /ext sub-directory. I suggest the FAQ
is modified to advise the user to either...

change extension_dir from "./" to "./ext/" -OR-
move php_mysql.dll to the PHP directory -OR-
add the 7ext sub-dir to PATH

... I chose the first.

Minor issue, but may help a few.

Reproduce code:
---------------
N/A

Expected result:
----------------
N/A

Actual result:
--------------
N/A
