PHP Beginner

Post by glenws »

Hi All

Hope someone can give me some advice.

I recently started working for a small company were one of its businesses is buying in mobile phones for refurbishment http://www.rpcrecycle.com.

With the website dated and very restricted by the way the templates are set up we are looking to redesign the site from scratch to give us more freedom of amending and changing the site whenever required.

We have experience in designing websites using Dreamweaver but are complete novices when it comes to PHP.

Are current site has a checkout, and a login area for customers. What would we need should we be looking at rebuilding the site from scratch regarding PHP.

You'll need a database to store your info and mysql can help--it works great with php.

Follow this link for xampp:

http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html

--It contains:php, mysql, apache (your server), and
phpmyadmin(helps build your database php with mysql).

Xampp configures and installs easily upon your system.

Follow the following link for video tutorials on PHp and Mysql--
I prefer video and words:
