Hi, I noticed a lot of websites show "Related Items" on each product page. I want to know how usually do you implement it. Should I add a field in the mysql table to hold the "Related Items" information? What's the best solution? Thanks for your input!

depends how you decide to relate items
It could be other items from the same category could be in the same price range could be stuff you want to get rid of
depends on what you decide it should mean

For example, on the product "Bathrobes" page, "Towels" will be one of the related items. They are not necessary from the same price range and the same category. Just thinking that the customers can add this to the same gift baskets. Should I make another table to hold the related items for each product? Or there's a better solution? Thanks.

If your items have descriptions you could always have it search through the description and pull out related items that way (things that have similer descriptions or titles that have words that are in the description of another item)
