Hello,

Issue: I have to make a section on a site that includes a list of 1000+ items which gets added to daily. However, i dont want to add to the HTML and upload the html file everytime. I want to create a Database of some sort (perhaps using MySQL) where i can either manually add to the database of have another page that allows me to add items to it. My problem is i have NO idea where to start... Can someone point me to a simple solution? Is there even a simple solution to this problem?

Thanks in advanced.

Im not sure I really understand what you want but from what I understand you need a database to store your 1000+ items and you also need a form to feed the database. I am sorry my english is poor but the code is clean
Is this what you need? If it is I'll make a page with all the coding you need. Just let me know.

Streek, if you can, try coding this yourself. It's a nice simple system, and it's an ideal way of getting started learning PHP and MySQL. It includes all the basic elements of web development that you will reuse over and over again. Look for any PHP and MySQL tutorial (google will turn up hundreds). A good one should cover:

1. Setting up the database.
2. Putting things in it manually.
3. Reading the database and producing an html list.
4. Writing a form to add to the database.

That's all you need to do, and most web applications are just combinations of these simple steps.
