Installing MySQL on mac

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Run the Sequel Pro Application on my Mac
2.Press the ? to access help
3.Clicked the link titled: "Installing MySQL on your Mac" on the 
http://www.sequelpro.com/docs/category/getting-connected/ web page

What is the expected output?
A help screen telling you what to do.

What do you see instead?
Oh No! Something happened! We had a long hard look... but we couldn't find the 
page you are looking for. Sorry!

What version of Sequel Pro are you using?
1.0.2 Build 4096

What version of OS X are you using?
Mac OS X 10.7.5
What version of MySQL are you connecting to on the server?
I am not sure which version to connect to, I just followed the links provided 
in the software help.

Please provide any additional information below.

When I ran the sequel pro I was presented a form I need to fill out. At the top 
it said "Enter connection details below, or choose a favourite."  Then below 
that it had three buttons (tabs) in a row that said: "Standard Socket SSH".  
The standard form was the one highlighted. With the following information 
including data already automatically added:

Name: localhost
Host:
Username:
Password:
Database: Optional
Port: 3306

Below there was a checkbox that said: "Connect using SSL". This was not 
checked. Then below that on the left hand side was the help "?" button and when 
I clicked it it took me to the "Getting Connected" page: 
http://www.sequelpro.com/docs/category/getting-connected/

This is the information I found on that page:

Getting Connected

When you open Sequel Pro, the first screen that you will see is the database 
connection window. If you don't have access to a MySQL server, perhaps you 
could try installing MySQL on your Mac.
                      ----------------------------  

I followed the link entitiled "installing MySQL on your Mac" highlighted in 
blue at the end of the above paragraph. Then it took me to page that indicated 
that it could not find the page I was looking for.

Now I am none the wiser, and I cannot use sequel pro on my Mac
