Topic awaiting preservation: phpMyAdmin Database website

I have SQL adatabase at phpMyAdmin via my webhosting company. Not
being a computer wizard I wanted to start my own website with the
intension of starting a home based business.

Since I can not afford expensive courses, with God's help and his
kind people I was able to learn HTML, then Since 4 weeks I tried to
learn PHP, MSQL and installed PHP, MSQL & Apache on my Windows98
computer. All three aork perfectly well. I can build Databses and carry out all the small tutorial programs.

The tragedy is on the internet mostly the Free Tutorials are for
databe & PHP at the MSQL> prompt. My webhosting company gave me the login information to access the phpMyAdmin database. Most of the
command from the tutorial don't work in my program & when I try to
access my database the program just sits very quite. It opens something
but then nothing happens. I don't even know if it is accessing the
database.


I have designed in HTML the webpage to display my products pictures but I want the HTML program to be able to read the product details from my phpMyAdmin database and display the details in a table with my add into shopping cart button linked to each product. Thanks to Mal's free shopping cart I plan to link these products to the add to shopping cart button if only I know how to do it.

I am very tired and feel very sorry that all my hard work is just going
to waste. Could you please help me! I would really appreciate it and be
greatful to God Al-Mighty for your help.

Thank you.

For your problem I'd only really use phpMyAdmin for creating databases and transfering data from your database at home. You'll need to connect you your database from inside your scripts. I couldn't more highly recommend this tutorial to ease you into this:
