I am just wondering if anyone knows how to make a script for a php code to write to a database. Basically what I want is have a few fields that request information and then I want it to submit to a mysql database. I also would like to have a script that will export information from the mysql database. Can someone help me with this please? Thanks.

use a html form to post data to a php page, then you can run queries through mysql with php
look at:
mysql_connect()
mysql_select_db()
mysql_query()
and don't forget the essential mysql_error() for error reporting!
read those functions on the php manual
http://www.php.net and if you still have questions post some examples of stuff you are trying.

Hi!
I think you should search a php manual first cause all you need are basic features in php!

For example take a look at
this!
