Thanx Jerry for the reply:
This returns the default port value. But when the MySQL server is
installed the app that runs after the installation lets the user
configure the MySQL port. Now I need to access this port value through
the PHP. My PHP script only works for the port value that is pre-
defined. So when the user again does configuration and changes the
port value, my PHP script (which calls my sql functions) no longer
works.
I think I have no alternative than to open the MySQL ini file through
PHP and search for the "port" text and retrieve it's value.
