Not really the best example to learn, assumes have cpanel, uses short tags, allows empty POST values and also deprecated mysql_* functions

 

If you have phpmyadmin that's fine for setting up databases.

 

For database connections and manipulating data learn PDO or mysqli_* and use prepared statements

If use mysqli_* be sure to use mysqli_real_escape_string()

 

Also look into doing better error checking plus also checking if the request exists, data types and values from the form before using them.
