I've never used PHP before

[SirMike]

Hi all! I've been sitting here reading some of the stuff you've been writing here, and I can see that you know your stuff :) Now, I need some help, but not all the way. I have never used PHP before, but I wanna learn.
What I need is to make this little application form, and I also want the results to be seen on a different web page.
I'm not sure if I'm making any sence here....brrrr...
This is what I want ppl to fill in on the form:

Name
Surname
Other name
Group
State
Mail

I need a counter too :/
Ok....when a person have filled the application, he wants to see that he/she is on the list. I need to make the results of all applications made to show online....

Well, just give me something please :)

Thanx

Mike

Welcome to WebmasterWorld, Mike.

We don't generally give basic lessons or write scripts for people here, but you'll surely find what you're looking for here

[php.net...]

Also a search at Google for PHP scripts should find you something that'll meet the need, all ready made and ready to roll.

Thanx :)

Mike, HotScripts.com has a great assortment, you'll find something for sure. Working with ready-made scripts and then studying a bit of the basics helps understand what's being done.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld SirMike,

As Marcia suggested many scripts are available online for you to download. The best way to learn a new language is to have some specific goal to accomplish, which you have, and to find a working script and start tweaking and adjusting it.

Then you can use php.net for looking up specific functions and getting a basic understanding of what the script is doing.

How about a few links for you to digest?
PHP Manual [ca.php.net]
Getting Started with PHP [ca.php.net]
PHP Language Reference [ca.php.net]
PHP FAQ [ca.php.net]

That should get you started. There are also some good books available as well.
