Description:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/connector-odbc-configuration-connection-parameters....

The READTIMEOUT and WRITETIMEOUT as documented do not make sense as an option and is not usable as can be shown by the numbers assigned as "N/A".

These should be listed in the parameters section as they will be used in the connection string such as  "..;READTIMEOUT=60;WRITETIMEOUT=60;..."

How to repeat:
N/A

Suggested fix:
Update documentation to show them as parameters rather than options

Johnaton, I agree.

Tony, please fix docs and c/ODBC versions, if necessary.

READTIMEOUT and WRITETIMEOUT have now been moved to the parameters section.
