i'd advise not using something like ultradev until you can write some nice little scripts in notepad! it's always easier to debug if you start learning the code properly, then move onto something like ultradev just to speed it up a bit when you're competent. firstly, the actual extraction of code from a database is easy - just look up how to connect, create a simple sql statement, and get some results using it. the first thing to do is to get your MySQL database set up though. are you telnetting in to the server to seet it up, or running a server on you local machine? let us know how it's all set up first!

Hello all, I'm new to this database stuff - I'm looking to create a simple database in MySQL for a news page. Just want the date of the input and the text for each entry! Not too hard! But I'm a complete novice!!! I am using Dreamweaver UltraDev (and the PHP extension).
