form question please help!

Post by cypher235 »

ok, so im new to working with php and i created a form such as this:
headline _________ (with the underscores being text areas)
story _________
url _________
submit
what i need the data from this form to do is post it at the top of a table i created everytime something new is submitted and make the headline data a link with the url that is submitted with the form. i know there's gotta be a way to do this and one of my friends suggested php(which i happen to know very little about). if someone could show me how to do this it would be greatly appreciated. please help!

you need to store the information in a database. and then get the information out of the database using php to display it where you want it to be.
this will teach you everything you need to know.
