PHP/MySQL tutorials

[fuzz]

Does anyone have any links to good tutorials on using MySQL with PHP? I'm trying to set up a website that uses MySQL to retrieve data about bikes and display the information on the webpage. I'd like to create a drop down menu that asks for manufacturer, then updates the page and asks for model, and then year, kind of like Parkers or a parts & accessories finder.

This is very useful, as it helped me to develop my ALevel coursework very well.

Ah, good old A-level Computing...

I never did this at A level. Come to think of it, I don't think it existed when I was at college.

Hi

Should be fairly easy to do, but the points you are raising are more HTML forms issues.

All the best

I'll be using Dreamweaver to generate the HTML forms and javascript that accompanies it, it's just the php->mysql requests that I'll need serious help with.

Learn HTML while you're at it, honestly.

Learning PHP without knowing HTML isn't the way forward.

I do know HTML, I'm just using Dreamweaver so I dont have to code everything myself

Do you have a testing server set up with phpmyAdmin on it, as you can test queries without having to write the page as shown below:

Also get PHP Designer 2005, which has a debug feature in it to find problematic php code and give you appropriate error messages.
