Hello all,
I’m new here and have a question I’m sure someone can help me with.
I would like to put together a web site where the viewer can enter data into pre-defined fields and to store that data in a MySQL database.
Im assuming that PHP is the way to go here but im a beginning PHP programmer.
What I would like is a development environment which provides me with the ability to manage the look and feel of the web site, I,e, the content, as well as making it easy for me to create the forms, specify which fields are displayed on the form, perform field level validation etc, generate the SQL and store the user entered data in a mysql database.
Is there a single development environment/tool/IDE which will allow me to do this or do I have to manage the content in one tool and develop PHP/SQL in a second environment?
Any help much appreciated.
Thank you
Jason Vicinanza

This comes up rather often, so I will point you there as I have many others. When you have a good hour or so to read, scan through the 'What's your favorite PHP editor?' mega thread. There is a lot of reading, and a lot of opinions presented in it.
