Hi there! I'm just finishing up a project that did exactly that. Ultimately you want to build your web application in php and mySQL, then have the android send data to a page on your website that's written in php to accept post or get requests. The get method is easier to treat than the post method, so I found that if you just want to stuff some data (like strings or numeric info like lat/long) it's better to send android to a page written in php with those values attached to the URL.
Ie: String valueIWantToStore = "foo" String URLString = "mysite.com/page.php?value-to-store=" + valueIWantToStore URL theURL = new URL(URL String) There's a bit more to it than that, but I'm typing this on my android, so I can't copy/paste the code right now. Of course, use post method for text blobs, or if you're uploading a file like a photo or something, and you want to associate a matching filename in the db. Finally, check out w3schools.com for great php tutorials if you're just getting started! Best of luck! Harlo Holmes / Lovers v.
