Hello I have a question, I have been trying to make a database that you can add mpeg files to. I have tried several ways but I have not had any luck. Does any one have any suggestions. How I can go about making one. I was told that best way of doing it is to link the files to a database but, I am not sure how that is done. Does any one have some suggentions on how to go about it and maybe a tutorial that I can look at that I mabe able to get some Ideas Thanks..

Do you understand how to design the database part?  If not, do a tutorial on that first.  Otherwise you'll go mad trying to work it out :)  Google will find you plenty of tutorials.  Look for something like "PHP SQL tutorial"

 

And yes, the best way is to store the file names in the database, but store the files themsleves as files.  MPG is too big to store in a database.
