Necropolis Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Hey there, If I wanted to make a web page which allowed users to enter they're previously made account and move it to another database how would I do so? I am new to PHPMySQL and am here at these forums to learn.

revraz Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 You should look into MySQL and PHP Schools/Tutorials. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/131353-php-mysql-help/#findComment-682127 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maq Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 After you create the new database do a mysqldump and populate it with the old information. Then update your connection strings to MySQL in your new page.

Necropolis Posted November 5, 2008 Author Share Posted November 5, 2008 No I dont think you understand, I am asking if anyone can help me make a webpage where people enter they're account name and get a copy of their account sent to another database.

Maq Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 It's the same as putting it in your own. You just need the credentials to connect to the other database. When they log in take the user name, or w/e they log in with, look them up in your current DB, and insert all of their information into the second DB. I don't see real issue here... Do you have anything done yet? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/131353-php-mysql-help/#findComment-682940 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Necropolis Posted November 5, 2008 Author Share Posted November 5, 2008 Ok here is my request, I want to make a web page where people enter they're account name and password. If the name and password is correct an automated system (using queries) creates a copy of their account and moves it to another DB. I have none the knowledge of PHP nor SQL queries to do this. So a guide or an example would help me.
