Okay, I am a noob heres my problem:

Im just starting on a news system and I neeed to create a database with the following columns:
#date
#id
#title
#body
#Author

I know ID has to be primary. But I don't understand what Length/Values1, Collation, Null, Default2 are.

Please help me out.

Thanks.  8)

make id primary like you said,then make it autoincrement so the id number increases everytime you insert news.

Value/Length is how long the post will be just make the message VARCHAR and Length/Value 255

that goes for everything.

try looking at tutorials here: http://www.pixel2life.com/tutorials/php_coding/forums_and_guestbooks/
