regarding ubuntu..

[nix]

how to i convert this:
mysql-server libapache2-mod-auth-mysql php5-mysql

into a link that i can paste into a browser and download the same
software?

reason: i need to download MYSQL for a ubuntu box not connected
to the internet. I plan to download it from a windows box and
then install that into my ubuntu box.

Hmm? You mean you want to download Apache DEBs and all its dependencies from Windows?

I think this will work.

hey, thanks for your time.

I think my question was not framed properly. here it goes again:

I want to download MYSQL server for ubuntu. The terminal link to download that is-
sudo apt-get install mysql-server.


but since my linux box is not connected to the web, i want to download the same using a browser, not the terminal. that means, i want the link to the webpage from where i can download MYSQL.



I looked it up on the web, but MYSQL is not a single installable file, there are many parts and I do not know which one of them to download. I hope you understood.
