Help creating a form for an item tracking website

Hello,

 

This is my first post in this forum, I am also pretty new to PHP and mysql, and I'm haveng trouble wrapping my brain around it. This is kind of a PHP/mysql question.  I am trying to create an item tracking website similar to http://www.wheresgeorge.com.

 

I'm having trouble processing the html form, especially the "date found" portion. I also don't really know how to set up my tables in my database so that they work efficiently.  The information I an requesting with the form is: item_number, found_by, date_found, city, state, country.  I'm assuming that I will have to have more than one table in order for people to search by item_number or found_by etc.

 

I know these are kind of broad questions, but let me know if you'd like me to post what code I have, or stick the files on my FTP for download. I am using SQL Manager for a mysql client and Dreamweaver CS3 for design.

 

Thank you in advance for your patience with me, I know how it is to help newcomers  ;D
