PHP online dating service

Post by rexmann »

Hi
I have been working on a project to sort out an online dating service (im not a business just a project - im a teacher!!) where users register their details (i could do this), upload an image or more (had problems) and then display the details. I have been using ASP (Access) but have begun to consider whether a move to php might be a better option.

Does anyone know sites, tutorials, downloads that could help me set this up in php. I am on a limited budget plus against the clock.

I am a bit of newbie (ok total) and would appreciate any advice.

I know there are various open source projects but do not know of any to do with this area. Also would anyone know of a good hosting service which would support the above?

Any help would eb appreciate (plus if this post is in the wrong section please let me know and I will repost)

cheers Rexmann

Install local test server with php/mysql/apache: http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Software_ ... tion_Kits/

Get the php manual (recommend the downloadable version with user comments) from php.net.

Mysql manual from mysql.com.

There are lots of tutorial links in the home page of this site - see also php.net and zend.com.
