where to place jdbc jar for mysql

Hi, I was wondering where to put the jdbc jar for mysql?

All jar files need to be on the classpath. The classpath will need to be updated to contain the actual jar file.
Example:
classpath=.;c:\java\lib;c:\java\lib\mysql.jar

Or if you are using Java 2, you can put jars in the jre/lib/ext directory and they will be picked up automatically.
