i have a tutorials section on my site and i want others to upload their tutorials.

how do i do this???

im 15% of the way through reading a php tutorial so i should know what to do by the time im finihed but i need this now, not in a month.

im not asking for it all to be done for me, though it would be nice!

i just want to know all the steps to do it in (detailed please)

sorry to be a pain!!

Well......I would use a database.

When you upload the file, it adds an entry to the DB with an id, a name and a URL.

Then you just print the names in a looped query.

That's if you want the to upload the file.

If you want them to write it on the site.... Then just post the data to a database then get the information in a loop 😃

i want them to fill out a "form" where they can:
1. write all the material
2. insert images into the tutorial
3. state what catagory the tutorial will be in from radio buttons (so when they are finished they will be added into the right catagory)

cheers!

You want us to make you a script?! Put it in coding. Most people would charge you for this.

okay, first off, build a form with everything you want on it. if you can't do this yet. than keep reading and come back when you know how to do that.

this forum is for answering questions and pointing you in the right direction. NOT to do your homework. don't take offense, just know that if you have no clue where to go from here, keep asking, but, don't expect it to be done for you.
