Mike,
It appears you are thinking a DB is a physical thing like a static webpage. It
is physical in that it resides on your file system, however it is not like a
static webpage.
Take a look at these tutorials
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/tutorial.html. They should help you
understand the what and how of databases, specifically MySql.
Here is some PHP info on how to work with MySql databases
http://www.php.net/manual/en/set.mysqlinfo.php.
I would recommend understanding the basics before trying to install Joomla on
your local LAMP install.

I was thinking..... Do you need to create a new database for every new website?
If so I think I need to chown the database or maybe add it to a
group.:-)~MIKE~(-:

why is it asking for database info?! oh bother.well I tried to create a
database but this is the error it gives:
An error occurred while trying to create the database onlineworkfinder.us.
The user may not have enough privileges to create a database. The required
database may need to be created separately before you can install Joomla!.
So please, what do I need to do. Should I chown something? If so,
what?:-)~MIKE~(-:
