Most of this stuff is actually just SQL and has little to do with PHP. So look for an SQL tutorial. From the PHP side all you need to know is mysql_connect(), mysql_select_db(), mysql_query() and mysql_fetch_row().''
All queries are sent to the database via mysql_query(). It doesn't matter to PHP if you are adding, deleting, modifying, searching, sorting, filtering, or whatever. You just put the SQL code in the mysql_query() call. -Rasmus On Tue, 3 Sep 2002, Matt Zur wrote: > Can someone point me in the direction of an online tutorial for php > mysql that covers the following: > > - Teaches me how to use php to access mysql > - Creating a db that is structured to be efficient > - How to add, modify, and delete records in a database > - How to search for records > - How to filter records > - How to sort records, by a certain field, alphabetical, descending etc. > - Indexes - how to create them, how to keep the updated with changes in > the db a beginners look to in-depth approach. > > Yes I've visited PHP.net, and mysql.com.
