Code: Select all

<?PHP
$username = 'harvester';
echo $username;
?>
Single quotes around a variable will just print $username not harvester.

Play around in here

http://au2.php.net/manual/en/ref.strings.php

and here

http://au2.php.net/manual/en/ref.array.php

When you are a bit more comfortable with that start looking at MySQL.

Just my two cents.

go to Barnes & Noble with at least $50 and buy the "PHP Bible", other's may say other books, but i recommend this one cuz it helped me a lot.

if you want to learn how to use php with mysql, get PHP and MySQL Web Development from the same bookstore :) Sorry, couldn't help but post it. GREAT resource. Biggest thing though, is after you learn how to call variables both from a form, a database, and from php, just start looking at other people's code and get an understanding of how they are building their code ( http://www.evilwalrus.com is a good start ).
