Coding...

I am pretty new with PHP, but what I've learned in the last 3 weeks is
pretty good I think so far!

What I'm looking to do is create a login script, and have people being able
to login.

Now, I have pulled scripts from sites, and everything is working okay.
But the problem I have with pulling scripts from other sites, is that the
mysql databases are all different.

How can I import from one database into the other, so basically all the
databases are merged into one main?

I also know that each PHP file has to be re-done and look for the new
database name, for instance if it was user_name, and the default (Main)
database is username .. That I Have to rename all the php files that have
user_name to simply username.

If anyone is willing to help out with the project I'm working on with
another programmer? Hopefully being very cost effective .. or free :) :)

Thanks,

Jeff

I'd pick up a book "Web Database Applications with PHP and MySQL",
otherwise known as the Platypus Book, and use that. That will teach you
a lot about logins, sessions, as well as using MySQL and PHP together.
As far as the database name goes, that has nothing to do with the PHP
file name.

There are a lot of good books to go by. I suggest getting one that
incorporates both PHP & MySQL, not just php.

Another book to try is "MySQL/PHP Database Applications" by Greenspan &
Bulger. I've actually managed to find Brad Bulger's e-address and
correspond with him. He's been quite helpful.

Jeff, too

I have dreamweaver 8.

I was playing around with it, I've created the layout, and the forms for registering, and logging in, but not exactly sure on how to link it to the sql database. (Let alone create it properly)...

A little hint would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for your time!

Jeff

Hop on down to your nearest Internet browser and search for the
following: "php mysql tutorial", they have tons of items for you to
choose from and they are super friendly and helpful.

you can also try: php.net,code samples,tutorials, books, mailing list
and thats in my order of preference when looking for help.
