You can connect to a MySQL Database server without a problem. MyODBC makes it easy. Take a look at http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/ASP/Using-MyODBC-To-Access-Your-MySQL-Database-Via-ASP/ for a good tutorial. Let me know if you need help setting it up or with code.

Sscripting language is pretty independent from database platform. Most languages work with most database in most cases.

MySQL will work with ASP, but it was not designed for asp. Your better off using MSSQL.

MySQL will happily work with ASP, which is why microsoft bundles the driver by default.
For a list of connection strings including one for mySql, see this thread:-

It works with it just fine, just like all others. I've only ever used MySQL with asp, and have never had a problem.
