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....

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...
