How to set up db manually

[DWTBC]

Hello,

 

I have founde this tutorial: http://www.hdeya.com/blog/2009/05/sorting-items-on-the-fly-ajax-using-jquery-ui-sortable-php-mysql/comment-page-1/#comment-865

 

I tried to do it, but I can't get the setup of my database to work as you can see here: http://www.danieldoktor.dk/jQuery%20UI%20Sortable%2C%20PHP%20%26%20MySQL/menu_list.php

 

My domain is hosted by www.one.com, so I know it is possible, and I have installed wordpress on my server too.

 

Can someone help

 

Daniel

That tutorial is just under 4 years old, and as such quite outdated. You really aught to find something at least a bit more up to date, preferably less than 2 years old.

The jQuery UI manual holds some examples of you the JS bit is done, as for the PHP bit the PHP manual is a good source. Note that you should be using MySQLI or PDO, not the old MySQL library. That one is on its way out, as it's not been maintained for quite a while.
