In this lesson I will show you how to connect to a MySQL database using a PDO connection. When I first started using PDO many (many!) years ago there were literally no tutorials available and documentation was poor and what little there was used extremely abstract examples. Many users were still using the old MySQL extension.
As I was developing the latest course, Tic-Tac-Toe using jQuery, one of the things that had to be accomplished was to iterate through an array. It is an easy process but I thought it would be useful to go through the code.
