Hi - a week ago I knew nothing about database setup. My domain has mysql and I've setup a database. PHP seems to be the most common template style for mysql database. Anyone have any recommendations for front-end admin, add/delete/etc that's easy to use (laymans terms)? I'm not very programming-compatible. An example of a plant database, to give you an idea of what I'm after: URL or URL
I only want site visitors to search by fields more like cnet/download. Any frontend PHP I've downloaded doesn't tell me exactly where on my NTserver do I put the files - ie. /public or ? Please excuse my ignorance on this - I'm far better with plants. Mike |

In all likelyhood your host provides you with PHPAdmin. A program that lets you easily add, delete etc from the db.
The location of the files does not matter, you just have to give the path to the link once the info is selected from the db. Lets say you have the following pages rose1.htm, rose2.htm, tulip1.htm and you keep all the pages in a folder 'plants'. In your db I would add a column for page_name. If a user no does a search for 'roses', your db query will show two pages. When you read out the results put this in your page: print "<a href='plants/$page_name'>$page_name</a>"; This will then create the link to your page. Hope this helped. Mantas |

Depending on what you're trying to set up, you might also want to post something in the Project Help Wanted forum. There are lots of good web developers here who do freelance work, so if you're trying to set up a business site, you might have some luck getting them to do the programming for a reasonable fee.
