JDR Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Hello there I am an absolute neophyte here in programming in general and php. Here's what I'd LIKE to be able to do and perhaps you guru-types can tell me if such a thing already exists or would be learnable. Create a web based event management tool. It would appear as a calendar on which events would be scheduled and lists of attendees would come up if you clicked on the event icon/name on a given date. A user database for logins would have to exists since a big part of of the functionality would include users being able to CONFIRM or UNCONFIRM their attendance. So - calendar based event planner with A) schedulable events that would include a list of up to 25 attendees and B) the ability for users to log in and confirm or unconfirm themselves. I have a web hosting provider with php and mysql so I think I have the tools....the know how I lack and the brain power to put your good suggestions to work...still in question. Thanks, in advance, for your input! JD Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/106107-painfully-naive-newb-post/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterACE14 Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 thats doable , however quite complex for a beginner :-\ Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/106107-painfully-naive-newb-post/#findComment-543845 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDR Posted May 17, 2008 Author Share Posted May 17, 2008 thanks for the quick reply. the answer is as I expected, however let me push it a bit Are there tutorials that would allow me to start exploring each step of this process? Build a calendar? Then make it add events? Then add people as a list to those events? Even that much would be a start for me and it wouldn't require a user database since the CONFIRM/UNCONFIRM function wouldn't exist. Is there a tutorial for managing a user database? Thanks, again!

garry Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Your database would hold all the information on the site. E.g the events, the users, who was attending. There are plenty of tutorials on the net which show you how to make a database and explain what they're all about. Just google "php and mysql".
