These are the steps that are needed to make a database connection to run queries inside the aptana IDE .
Click the Database Perspective . Right click and add Database . Enter a name to recogise easy for you . ( Picture below shows it )
Clicking Next will ask you for the username and password and the connection string . The user name and password is that of your mysql db . Hope you have already installed MySQL .
The connection string is jdbc://mysql://localhost:3036/
when its ok you can test it and check whether it works fine .
Connecting to server is jdbc://mysql://www.domain.com:port/
I too have searched to find the solution . Got it from Aptana forum . The forum is great, so you don't need to worry about it .

Doesn't work in Aptana 1.5
There is no Database Perspective in Aptana 1.5.
I hope it will be there
I am using Aptana studion version 1.2 . I hope the 1.5 defnitely will be having this perspective . Have you tried Window->Open Perspective->Other . From there you can see a list of perspectives . Select the Database Explorer . It will defnitely work for you .
Thanks
