ok, so i am new to PHP I have just installed PHP 5.2.5 on IIS I need to create a site with a mySQL database with user profiles and don't know where to start?! I can do it all in ASP and access database?!
Do you have phpMyAdmin installed? It is a PHP application that provides a web-based interface to MySQL, which you may find makes it easier to set up your database and define the tables (as opposed to typing out all the relevant SQL by hand).
