From what I understand:
SQL = Structured Query Language. MySQL, Oracle, Microsoft SQL, Informix (RIP), Sybase, etc are implementations of this broader language. |

SQL is the language that is used to query the database, select and find records, insert and delete. It's a standard that's poorly followed, but the basics are supported by all.
mySql is a database engine, that accepts the SQL and follows the instructions it recieves, passing out the relevant data as required. Some functions on phpmyadmin will not work for a another SQL server, as mySql has some non-standard commands. But some parts will work. Whatever database you're using, the should exist some administration tool. Garth Farley |
