Why is this so frustrating!!!!!!!!!!

[Tom_LR]

I'm new to PHP. Through my web host I have mySQL. I simply want to be able to create a page that a user can search the database by, for example, an account number of one of their clients. Upon submitting their search button, I want the user to then see the results of their search, their customer's information (name, address, balance, etc., etc.). Then, I want the user to be able to email us changes, payments, etc. via a form. I have searched until I'm blue in the face trying to find PHP/mySQL documentation that is simple and direct (step 1, step 2, etc.) For example, how do you search the database and then how do you get the results from a specific cell to appear? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Buy a book is how you do it. Although these days you may not need to buy the book when you can donload some of it from the web. Have a look at this on SitePoint for a start. You could also try searching the articles we have in this place.
