    Well I'm trying to use mysqli with my localhost running xampp. Apparently I need to have the libmysqli.dll file, but can't seem to find a copy through google, and was wondering if anyone knows how I can resolve this and hopefully get a copy of the extension from also

    Many thanks in advance

    Did you try grabbing a copy of the Windows PHP package from www.php.net and checking if it's in there. WAMPServer would install it for you, though :)

    Yeah I have had WAMP before, and had issues with it, so I stay clear of it. I've just downloaded the PHP zip from php.net, and taken a look in there. It has the libmysql but not the libmysqli:(
