Hi Adam,
Some monks have given you the basic answer to this question already; I can see that you're after more learning resources. Good for you. As a starting point, I'd recommend:
Simon Cozens's article on Perl.com, introducing the way Perl deals with databases You'll find that Perl's DBI module, and the MySQL module that goes with it, DBD::mysql, are all you need to get Perl and MySQL working together - it's not worth looking at things like phpmyadmin or whatever, they're not really relevant. For more info on installing modules, you need to find out about something called 'cpan' - search the site here, on Google and at http://www.cpan.org/, and you'll find a load of useful info. HTH! Best wishes, andye
