Hello,

I was hoping you guys could help me. I have just gained a new client but need to get a web based database up and running today. I need a login portal and then a webbased form where upto 10-15 users can access a database through a online form and create and search records. There are only a few fields that need to be stored. Customer name/ tel no/company name/ date of repair/ item repair. I dont mind whatever we use... mySQL whatever is needed.

Please can somebody point me in the direction of a script that can do or half do what I want.

Thank you

XAMPP will give you MySQL and PHPMyAdmin.

I already have hosting. That reply has nothing to do with what I am trying to achieve

PHPMyAdmin IS a web portal to let you set up your database.

WingedPanther, I know what PHPmyadmin is... i dont know if youve understood the question incorrectly... but I am trying to set up a database with a php front end that interacts withs my Mysql database i will configure with phpmyadmin. The database will be in mysql but needs a html/php front end for users to search the data base and create new entries.

Cheers

in a nutshell im looking for a php front end script to interact with a mysql database.

I think you're saying you need the users to be able to view/update/insert data in a friendlier way than SQL. You'll probably have to implement that yourself, depending on the requirements. That's a large portion of what PHP programming is about.

winged panther that is exactly what i am trying to do. do know of a similar open source script?

That's the sort of thing I would write from scratch, because it really depends on the data.
