How do I create a database driven store with my Mac using Dreamweaver MX. I thougth this would be in the correct section because I know you have to use a database.

I've been designing website for over one year in total. I'm a sheltered designer here (for web only, I know my print stuff) so my experience is minimum. Thats why I have no clue on how this is done.

A tutorial would be fine and some guidance would be ideal.

Thanks! :wink:

The best place to start is tutorials on PHP and using MySQL and PHP together (unless you have another database you would like to use). If you learn to write your own PHP it will put you in better stead in the future - Dreamweaver generated PHP code is a bit pants.

(there's lots more sites which Google can help you find but these should get you started)
