I am pretty familiar with php, but I haven't really played around with MySQL yet... What I'm trying to do is set up a simple page where my users can access files in one particular folder, and I want the database to update that list everytime it is accessed so that any new files will show up. I'll be serving .pdfs to my users through this, so all it really has to do is check the directory, convert the filenames into extensionless links in a selection box, and allow the user to click a download button to either open or dl them.
I figured I'd post this as I start to read some sql documentation and see if you guys can help me jumpstart my project. Thanks.
