    Hey, everyone! Okay... sigh... I posted a thread:

    http://www.sciforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=21706

    But, I think it belongs in this forum rather than Nerd Culture. I'll ask one of the Mods to move it. In the meantime, if anyone can still help me, I would definitely appreciate it!

    Peace,
    Wesmorrisbabe

    I would have to say PHP is the easiest database manipulation language to use.I would suggest using PHP and MySQL. Basically the only thing required to make something to maniuplate an SQL database is a little knowledge about html, SQL and PHP. All three are very simple languages (Although the fact that PHP uses so many different types of quotation marks might throw a few people off).

    The first thing I would do is install both MySQL from http://www.mysql.com/ and PHP from http://www.php.net/ . Bother pages have decent installation instructions. *hint* do not download the PHP installer. It is quite a bit quicker than the zip but it most likely won't have everything you need.

    A good place to learn a bit of SQL is http://www.sqlcourse.com/. PHP.net is a good resource for PHP material. In your case this will be a good resource when you need to return the values of the text boxes to the database.

    I hope this all helps.
