   mysql and php from other tables in a post? Is this possible and if yes how? Is there a plugin?

   I would like to show some informations/images in a post from other tables out of the WordPress site but don't know if it's possible?

   If this is completely impossible please tell me so? I'm a beginner and maybe that's why I have hard to understand if this is possible?

   Well guess you could use a plugin that allows PHP code in a post and then put code in the post to connect to and extract data from another database.
