Database PHP

When I try to Google for anything, I get MySQL info, so let's give it a shot here.

I want (a guide to creating) a small searchable and sortable database with a password protected way to add new things. So let's say I log in, add some info (name x, year y, genre z) and at the frontpage I want the ability to sort by name, year and genre and search through the existing records. I also want to make it clickable, so it'll take you to a page with more info (kind of like the memberlist of GFF, which you can sort and search through and then go to a profile).

Can anyone point me in the right direction or is anyone willing to code it for me?

Thanks in advance.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

From my limited understanding of web architecture, a MySQL database is actually probably what you want, and you'll just use a PHP page to interface with it via SQL commands. A lot of web hosts support both MySQL and PHP, or if you actually have your own web server you can set them up yourself. A database frontend should be pretty simple to program, and I'm sure you can find a PHP login script with a couple minutes of searching.

My favorite site for web-related development is W3Schools Online Web Tutorials. They have tutorials for both SQL and PHP. MySQL.com also has a section for developing with PHP at MySQL :: MySQL 5.0 Reference Manual :: 26.3 MySQL PHP API.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

MySQL qould be a good way to go with that. A lot of MySQL set ups also come with phpMyAdmin, which is a PHP web-based interface to a MySQL database and would provide a searchable, sortable way of accessing data.

[ phpMyAdmin ]

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
