php... news script etc

tastyweat · Nov 17, 2003, 03:03 PM

Who here knows much about php or where I can find php tutorials please?

I would like to put some form of a login script on my site enabling me and maybe some others to login and post news and things on the front page without having the go into the ftp client and put a completely new page in.

Thanks!

Do you have a backend db or flat file storage system worked out for storing the news?

If not, you need to design that before coding in PHP

http://phpbuilder.org/
is a good starting point i suppose

I'm after something very very similar for my new website and know nothing about PHP. Maybe someone could advice us what to do?

PHP Builder - linked above - is a good starting point for learning PHP.

Or, if you prefer, get a PHP book from your local bookstore. I recommend PHP in 24 hours by SAMS
