I've got mysql and php installed on my server and i was wondering if
anyone could give me some feedback/pointers on setting up a membership
list for a local chamber of commerce. I've been able to set up the
initial table (calling chamber.txt for the info, converted from a
word.doc) but i need to break out business categories into linkable
lists (hotels, restaurants, retail, etc.) and sort them alphabetically.
I've been reading all kinds of reference material but not being a
programmer it's alittle over my head... is there a simple way to call
the chamber.db so it displays information in a web page? I already have
categories broken out into a dropdown list (javascript i can figure out)
that is presently calling static html pages, but i'm getting tired of
having to add 2-3 businesses a week since i'm not getting paid for the
site and i can give the director access to the chamber.txt file via ftp
so she can do it. Any help would be really appreciated!!! Let me know if
i need to provide more info...
Thanks,
Terry
