Can I use spatial data held in MySQL as a data source for a maplab =
project?
I've seen a question go unanswered on this before.

The reason i ask is because i'm running winXP and have been unable to =
get postgresql running correctly - without even getting to the stage of =
adding postgis.. so i'm hoping to go back to MySQL and thump my data =
into that instead.

Whilst i'm here: I'd appreciate your thoughts on this: I wish to build a =
map service where users can click on a location on the map and enter =
details which will be stored as a point. I'm hoping to read/write data =
to MySQL and modify a MapLab project to get what i want. Would this be a =
sensible approach?

Regards,
Andrew Bailey
