well, if u mean "upload" them to your site, then you have some options:
1.your web host has/should have a web based file manager of some sort, you can upload them via that (usually u click browse n find them, that type od deal).
2.your web host has ftp access that will let u FTP to your web site and upload your files via a FTP program (ie: Cute FTP, LeapFTP, etc)
if you mean how to get them to display:
you will need to create a "index.html or index.php or index.whatever ext." the index will be what the server sees as your "home" page or whatever.
cheers

MySQL isnt all that complicated. I suggest going through this tutorial, it will help you understand how to add/edit data in/out of a MySQL db...

which commands are u refering to that they are telling u to write n not working? be specific.
mySQL is pretty important. Anyone who uses it will tell you its a programmers dream come true. When combined with php, you have a simple way to store data, edit data, update data, pretty much anything u can want to do with data (ie: search, and the above mentioned, etc) at your finger tips.
You want a forum like this?
Let me ask you a few questions, do you have a website? does your host offer php/MySQL? if so, your question as to would MySQL assisit you in making a forum, the answer is most simply yes. You could have all your users add information into it, store all the threads/posts and retrieve them with ease. Create a adminstrator section that allows you to choose people who can edit/delete accounts and so forth. Depends how willing you are to sit down and work out the code.
You dont have to code a whole message board, there are alot out there for free, u just set them up n smooth out some edges
phpbb is one of them i would recommend if you choose that route.
