Thanks for you help Mark. I am not so proficient in this kind of development but i am trying to explore the area. I installed a modular web server system based on Apache, MySql and PHP and on this server i will create the database and tables but then from my android application i would need to access this database simply by making some programmatically constructed queries. For some reason i think it would be better if i had to communicate using XML since it rings a better bell to me ;). Do you have any idea from where i can maybe get hold of a sample application which uses this type of communication?
