Hello DP! Is it me or are there very few GOOD php+mysql tutorials... I spent 2 hours reading now and still didnt figure out how to a) read an entry and b) re-write it. I mean... all I'd need is a simple table with all sql commands and how they are used. anything like that available? Brian
The MySQL functions in PHP can be found at: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mysql.php Or if you want to be fancier, these are going to replace them at some point: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mysqli.php But that does not teach you SQL. For SQL, the MySQL manual is a pretty good reference: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/index.html
I just need some overview of common sql queries. The last link you provided looks like the right one... The only problem is that I don't know where to start reading because I don't know the commands
You probably would want just the SQL syntax section... http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/SQL_Syntax.html For reading data, it's SELECT, for updating existing data it's UPDATE, for adding new data, it's INSERT, etc...
