Looking for help

[thebusiness]

I am looking for a tutorial on how to do the following.

 

 

I would like to display the output from a table, be able to select a row and modify the contents.  Also be able to create new rows.

 

Anyone know where I can get started with this?

Thanks

 

But I was looking for a little more detailed guide than this.

You'll need to run yourself through a few basic tutorials on selecting, updating and inserting records first. Familiarize yourself with how this is done and you'll have more of an idea on how to go about your task. It's hard to provide a straight out guide without writing a specific guide tailored to your needs which is essentially writing the code for you.

Although that tutorial is a fair few years old and is quite out-dated but gives you the idea.

Another older tutorial, again good for checking out some ideas.

i can script that for ya, but you're not gonna learn 

I can describe the logic to you and you can put it into ph/mysql code... and i'll help you along the way 

1) make connection to the database

2) use mysql_query to select and grab the data from the database

3) use mysql_fetch_array to put the data into the array

4) echo the array one by one

then follow all the step by number 2, you do update or insert into statement instead of select

And I strong recomment this book: head first php mysql on O'reilly site

i promise you'll love the book
