PHP3 and MySQL

[Alisdair McDiarmid <alisdair@jml.net>]

I'm trying to get PHP3 and MySQL to play nice, but they refuse. I want
to load the mysql.so extension, so in the /etc/php3/apache/php3.ini I
put `extension = mysql.so' and checked that extension_dir was correct.

This didn't work: php3 scripts without dl('mysql.so') in them fail to
work:

Fatal error: Call to unsupported or undefined function mysql_connect()
in /home/alisdair/public_html/test.php3 on line 4

Why isn't it working? Do I have to recompile PHP3 with MySQL support
builtin?
