demo 18 Dec 2008 08:41am Yes, you have to write a script to insert the data into your data tables. Then you would also probably write one to view your data. There are free scripts and tutorials available on the web, but the learning curve may be steep for you if you have never done any programming before. Everything will have to be customized for your needs. |

demo 18 Dec 2008 08:54am It dispends on what your using to make your website. If your just using html then I'm not sure but if your using an online website maker see if they have one available or if your using a CMS website builder (Like Joomla or Mambo) go and see if there is one available on the web. You could also search google for some help if all fails. Hope this helps. |
