hi everyone!
I am making a program using php and mysql...I am a noob on this so i need your help guys...I want to make a simple program that will some values and then store them on a database and then retrieve them...uhmm let me give an example out put of what i need.
This is the example say..: Enter First Name: Enter Last Name: Enter Age: Enter Address:
..those are the data needed for input values...my question now is how can I make a database which will store the data of the inputed values and then retrieve them afterwards? I know there are lots of php and mysql gurus here which can help me...thanks guys in advance...
Notice from rvalkass:

To create the database, I suggest making use of a tool such as phpMyAdmin. This will allow you to create the fields you need for your database to store your data. An example of the sort of table code I would use for this task is:
SQL
CREATE TABLE `addresses` ( `id` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY , `firstName` TEXT NOT NULL , `lastName` TEXT NOT NULL , `age` INT NOT NULL , `address` LONGTEXT NOT NULL ) ENGINE = InnoDB
Once your table is set up in your database, you will need to have some PHP code to connect to the database, to insert new rows, and to retrieve rows from the database. You will need the following basic code to connect to the MySQL database:
CODE
$dbh = mysql_connect('localhost', 'MYSQL USERNAME', 'MYSQL PASSWORD') or die('Error: ' . mysql_error()); mysql_select_db('DATABASE NAME') or die('Could not select database');
Obviously, replace the bits in capital letters with your relevant information.
Your PHP script will need to accept values from an HTML form, and INSERT them into the database. It will also need to SELECT the values in the database and display them to the user.
Hey, I need your help again! I need some good working tutorial how I can update my SQL through
HTML form. I did use some tutorials online found with the help of google; but they do not work
properly; I mean there are still small mistakes. I need to have a good tutorial to follow. It
should be based on security and more things. It has to be done in proper way......
Ok, so I'm making some arcade administration software so I don't have to add games the hard
way, well anyway, one of the features I have is that on the homepage is a featured author and as
such I just have it so it updates one line in the mySQL. Well, the page with the form passes on the
varibles fine and the updating page recieves them because I echoed everything, then I build the
query and I even echo the query and it comes out exactly how I want it to, but for some reason, the
database itself won't update even though all the varibles are there. Here's...
We know that php is a server side scripting language. So we will need a server with the php parser
to parse/test our code. How are you doing that. Do you upload it to a server for testing or did you
instal php and the server (apache) on your computer (localhost)...
Yes, yes. I have another script that I have written and I am distributing. I am not entirely sure if
this works. I have not tested it yet, but I will later and post back with a demo and fix it up.
Current script: CODE <?php //Save this as something like htmltest.php function
CheckForm() { $html_unsafe=$_POST['code']; //Gives us our user
input $html_safe=str_replace("<?php"," ",$html_unsafe);
//Starts security measures $html_safe=str_replace("?>","
",$html_sa...

Hello, everyone. The help is needed again. How can I make calculator in PHP language? That will act
like that a user just type in the fields known values, then click the button, and it's going to
be solved automatically. In other words, have can I write a formula in PHP, how to plug it inside
that language. For example, the formula to find a peremeter of square is: P=4a. So, a user
just can write the known value which is peremeter itself and it will find the side of a square; and
vice versa. If you can write many things how to do such formulas, such as comp...
Hello, everyone! I need some tools for those two things to test PHP scripts coming together with
database on my laptop, instead checking them on a web-server which takes time....
I am quite new to PHP and this concern came to my mind after playing around a bit with it... When
PHP is not correctly configured on the web server the source code of a php file we try to access
through a browser will be shown instead of the result of the code itself. This will normally not
happen when PHP is working properly, but I was just wondering if it could still be possible to see
that code if a user wanted to or if something on the server failed. This would for example expose
sensitive information like mysql passwords and so on... Is anything like that possib...
ok i need some more help from the wonderful coders here at Trap. I'm almost done with my CMS

Hi everyone! This is my first post, so be kind! Basically, I'm trying to get a free
host together so am writing some posts. Here's a little summin' summin' about malicious
code injection with PHP applications. Basically, this security exploit is one of the oldest tricks
in the books and all comes down to the fact that PHP allows execution of both local and remote
scripts with the SAME function... dur. Anyway, this is how it works. Image you've just employed
a young go getter, straight outta uni, who has found becoming a Jack of all trades a ...

I'm learning php in class right now, but I'm still not that good at it, what I'm
wondering is when I write the php so that it can connect with a database, can I at the same time
have it that it is able to display back images that I choose. Like, I want a search feature, where
you can search for a keyword, and it will bring back a list of all the possible entries with that
keyword, but each of these entries will have a photo associated with it. Now, do I put these image
files directly into the database, or do I write the code to link them from my files to th...

Hi I was reminded of this earlier by a post in a topic, meant to post it but forgot and the topic on
php books reminded me. Well anyway there is tyhschools for learning php (unless someone else knows

Hi, I have a column in a MySQL table which contains a counter of the views of the object described
by this table. I would like to increment this value by one everytime the object is viewed. Obviously
came into my mind the possibility of retrieving the value of this field, store it in a variable
increment this value by one and perform an UPDATE query again with this new value. My question is if
there is a MySQL option to update the field with its actual value plus an unit increment. I hope you
understand the issue....
Well for the past month or so I have been working on a Programming Competition project in AP
Computer Science. Some may know I am quite fancy with graphics and HTML but yes, I do program too.
But man, even though I am decent at it, it bores the crap out of me. Well being the project leader I
do most all of the work and I just use the two other members for support and error testing. We
receive a packet with our project problem in it. Make a fully functional support site for a company.
Of course with some other more little details but honestly since we are in the advance...
In search of dynamically changing quote, saying or all other types of text on an image I came across
a code that I have modified to fit my initial usage. This procedure requires two files and short
knowledge of PHP. If you are familiar with Trap17's sig rotation code you will understand this
procedure very fast. Code 1: dynamic_sig.php (you can rename this to index.php and you'll see
at the end why) Code 2: a simple text file named anything (I will call it name.txt ) Code 1

As everyone know, there two ways (that I can think of) to change files' and directories'
permissions. One is to change it in your cPanel's Disk Manager and the other is with an FTP
client that supports chmod. Well, I'm doing something for my site that requires files to have
full permissions (Execute, Write, and Read on all three groups). At first, I thought that if I made
the directory 777, then every file created in that directory will be 777 as well. I'm wrong. An
alternative to doing this is to change each file permission myself, but that would be...
