Hi,

I have been teaching myself slowly about Mysql by just pressing buttons and seeing what it does, how it works, and trying to relate it to Punbb and the code I have seen when editing the pun-php.

I would like to learn how to make my own mysql database with a couple of fields. I would then like to know how I can have my customer contact page connect to my database to store the information. For example, a new customer would fill out a form telling me his name, email address, delivery address and if possible the chance to attach a doc.

It is probably very simple stuff but I dont have the guts to take the first few steps for fear it wont work first time around and I will give up forever.

Would somebody be willing to post a (very) detailed report on exactly how to do this, or walk me through it step by step over msn messenger? [downliner05@hotmail.com]. If you know of an excellent tutorial (with screengrabs) please also post links.

Thank you

Will

Hi,

I know that in the past people have made a killing by selling domain names for ridiculous fees. $7,000,000 for diamond.com rings a bell lol.

I am now employed as a web designer for a wholesale and retail butchers in Scotland. I managed to buy the following domain names for £2 each per year through www.1and1.co.uk

scotchpork.co.uk | scotch-pork.co.uk | scotch-lamb.co.uk | scotchlamb.co.uk | beefsuppliers.co.uk | beef-suppliers.co.uk | pork-suppliers.co.uk | porksuppliers.co.uk | lamb-suppliers.co.uk | lambsuppliers.co.uk

I personally think that they will help give our company a boost with Google etc. People will be searching for 'beef suppliers' etc so aslong as we have good content it will boost our position. In the long run we could be ranked No. 1 and turn over a lot of profit.

On the other hand though, what kind of value do domain names have themselves. Im not talking millions obviously but could any of these domain names fetch a few grand each if put on afternic or ebay?

I dont know domain values so hope somebody can tell me what todays market is like for sales....

I have my order form located below:

http://www.yorkesofdundee.co.uk/forms/locals/form.php

All of the products are entered into mysql.

I opted for the order form instead of a whole online store because I hate trying to buy online and having to go through about 20 different pages just to order. Can anyone tell me how to add a feature similar to that shown on templatemonster.com 's index page? Notice, when you hover over one of the 4 templates it has a larger image load.

The images shouldn't be pre-loaded...I have 100 products and it would take forever just to see the order form. Can anyone suggest a suitable way of doing this?

Thanks!
