Abstract:

In a previous tutorial you learned how to get started using the Ruby language as a web scripting language by embedding it in HTML. You need some type of database connectivity to do the cool dynamic stuff. So here is a tutorial written by Markus Jais on how to connect to a MySQL database using Ruby. I will be updating and editing this tutorial to include more windows instructions where applicable.
