Accessing MySQL *without* using MySQLdb

[Luis Apiolaza]

Hi,

I'm writing a few Python scripts for CGI. My hosting company sort of
supports Python (it has Python 1.5.2 running in the server - Red Hat
Linux + Apache) and MySQL. However, they are not very keen in
installing new modules (e.g. MySQLdb). How can I access a MySQL
database from Python, without installing new modules? Does anyone have
a few pieces of code that would achieve this?

Thanks,


Luis
