Help with PHP and MySQL database

am 17.12.2006 20:12:49 von Juan Epstein

I have a domain, call it www.domain.com. I have a mysql database that
I created that I would like to add records to using an html form.

1. where do I put the php script that takes the fields of the form,
and adds it to the database? The fields (firstname, lastname, etc) are
called the same in the form as well as the database.

2. how do I dump the recors that were added to the database into
excel?

thanks

Why would you?

see myphpadmin for getting out data in cvs format that then maybe can be
imported into microsoft excel (excel is a registered trademark by Excel AB).
