    Does anyone have any tutorials or information on how to write a php/http tunnel to connect to mysql from a desktop app?

    Not sure if this answers your question, but you can compile php into an executable to run as a desktop app. The php can contain the typical mysql db connection code.

    If it's a desktop app, what does this have to do with php?

    Or are you running a webserver on the desktop? In which case, why don't you just point the mysql host to where-ever your database is hosted?
