Thank you for the great post strawberry. right now the biggest problem i am
having is not knowing what to do next.
do I learn mysql?
do i stick with access? even tho all i ever did was build simple tables.
learn php and html?
most importantly can i do this.
I have been reading lots on the subject but have lacked the ability to
actually ask questions.
the busy season is here and i really wanted to start building the database
and beable to show the changes on my web site. I have gotten very good at
finding properties and I have updates everyday.
i walked over to barnes and noble today to see these books in person.
Mastering phpmyadmin for effective MySQL Management was 1 book I wanted to
buy.. not in stock :(.
another was PHP and MySQL for Dynamic Web Sites: Visual Quickpro Guide.
dreamweaver 8 the bible.
Macromedia Dreamweaver 8 with ASP, ColdFusion, and PHP: training from the
Source.
what worries me most is not knowing if these books expect me to know any
kind of programming.
i think the first thing i should learn is MySQL with phpMyadmin. seems
pretty easy to create a simple table but i get worried that i wont know how
to create a relational database. for example if create a table for
buildings and another for apartments how do i relate them togethe? i guess
this is the wrong group for those questions. i have attempted to do that in
access with out luck and wonder just how hard it can be in something like
MySQL.
i have worked on databases like i want to create. start off by adding a new
building into a table and then in another table or form ( or what ever ) i
would start adding in information about a new apartment and pick the
building from a drop down menu and once i picked that it would also bring in
other fields from the buildings table, zip code, sub area, build info. also
yes know feilds or check box fields for pets, elevator, out door space,
doorman and so on. to top it all off today was my birthday and all i did
was rack my brains out. thank you so much for your help. even just talking
about it or knowing there is someone i can ask as i learn.
Thank you again.
Frank
