They're very helpful, but I don't know how to host a SQL database...

If I don't need to host a SQL database, do I just have to put my files on my website?

Please help!

Hey, Jeff, if I could, I would like to specifically send you my project, (I'll send the link via PM), because you appear to have knowledge in PHP and such...

If you accept, I'll send everything, and it is literally everything, I looked up how to make it all.

Please respond!

Xstar, are you planning on hosting a database on your home computer or remotely?

[XStar]

Home computer, I have no where else...

Hosting on your home computer will be fine for a test environment or for a few users. but if you're looking at a much larger scale I'd recommend looking into renting a VPS. (I could go in to detail why business lines are better than residential and why server os's are better then workstation os's but I'll leave it for you to google if you're interested.)

Setting up SQL isn't hard although I guess it can be over whelming for someone that is new to it all. I recommend you use a development/test environment package such as XAMPP (http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html). Installing that will setup a webserver with PHP support and MySQL. Although as the title suggests, these are generally used for development/testing purposes.

SO, everything I found is confusing, would you mind explaining to me how to set up mySQL?

Logan. You could hop over to B&N and get the book: PHP and SQL for Dummies. It is $24.95.

I have this book and it is pretty cool actually.

Download MySQL. It's pretty self explanatory. Reply if you need help!

I'm beginning to understand this, but there are some topics that I'm still confused on, could you explain?

What are tables?
