Installing PHP/MySQL (was no subject)

[Brian McCann]

The way I typically do it is install MySQL from the ports tree, then
install PHP from the ports tree.  While installing PHP,  it will ask
what options you want to compile into it.  Just check to make sure you
tell it MySQL and you'll be all set.

The web server and webDAV are working fine. I now want to add php4 and mySQL capabilities. I have read some of the latest mail and am confused as to how to best go about it.  I have never used php or mySQL before nor have I had it installed on a web server. What packages and in what sequence , if any, should I install ?  Also,  what does the number 20020429 at the end (/usr/local/lib/php/20020429 )  signify?  Thanks in advance for your help!
