Hi Guys, I am new to Web Development. Want to make services bidding website. eg- www.guru.com, www.ifreelance.com, www.elance.com etc. Could somebody please guide me as from where i should be starting? I am ready to buy scripts and templates. Can somebody guide me how to integrate design, programming, database and apache (server).? Regards
If you are going to be using existing software, I'd suggest reading through the appropriate documentation (if any) and checking over the source code of your chosen software. More than likely you are going to need to know PHP. The technologies you asked about can't be learnt overnight, but I can point you in the right direction for some really basic understanding: Databases (more than likely MySQL): http://www.tizag.com/sqlTutorial/ is a handy reference Apache: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/ Start with the reference manual. It's pretty light reading not to mention interesting. PHP: php.net - I suggest you use reference manual as you begin to edit whatever software you have purchased. Design: www.w3c.org for the philosophy, then refer to w3schools or similar for the practical implementation. People make a living out of the skills you have mentioned - you will need to put some time into understanding all of them.
it would be better ... if you read review before buying anything .... if you buy any php hosting you will get everything configured ... so dont have to worrry about configuration
