i've installed php5 on my windows 2003 IIS server. everything seemed to
work fine.
initially i changed a bunch of php.ini settings and they worked fine. now i
am trying to have the php connect to mysql server, so i uncommented the
line:

extension=php_mysql.dll

to enable things like mysql_connect() and set my extension_dir =
"c:\php\ext" so it can load that php_mysql.dll from the correct path. also,
my c:\php\ directory is in the windows environment path, so no problems
there... but then i run a php page with phpinfo() it outputs this values:

extension_dir C:\php5

and it doesn't have the expected mysql module section... i don't even have a
php5 directory on this computer, and i tried searching the php.ini for
"php5" but it's not even found.... i've tried restarting IIS and even the
whole computer, but still my changes are not taking effect. any advice?
