A good way to see a code:

Right click on a webpage, and (depending on your browser), you should see a message similar to "View Source" or "View Page Source". That's the best way to see how a webpage was coded. Also, there's a few websites out there that show you how to build webpages with java/frames/C+/etc. Very Happy

Code just tends to become second nature and you forget where you originally got it.

With "my system" I was refering to myself, not to a computer.
I've been working with it for so long now, I can't remember when and where it started exactly. It's like I never didn't know this stuff.

So you are saying the code was already on your server when you got it or you already knew how to database before you got it? Very Happy

I have no idea, it's been in my system for so long now, it's as if it's always been there. And don't use the z at then end of your words, it's lame.

I think almost anyone on the internet should know atleast SOME html.
You never know when it might come in handy and it familiarizes you with what admins work with! Smile

I taught myself basic HTML (picture codes, link codes, stuff like that) then I took a class for it in college (same with Adobe Photoshop/Paint Shop Pro. Taught myself Photoshop/PSP, and then took a class for Photoshop).

But everything else that's computer programming... I have no idea. And I taught myself Japanese for a long time.... >>;;

Thanks eFlare, but I am pretty squared away in the PHP dept.

But I am wondering -
Did you learn mySQL/SQL on your own?
Did you buy books? Go to a class?

I MUST KNOW! Biting

This board runs on the phpBB engine which uses PHP and MySQL.

PHP and MySQL have been making magic ever since PHP included easy access functions for a MySQL server in it's core. Since they are both open source products they are a loved combination. I myself couldn't think of a world without it, because...well, everything I create runs on those two.

If you have any questions about either, feel free to ask me, I'll be more than happy to help you out.

I was wondering...

Is this forum managed using SQL, mySQL, flat files (I know that sounds crazy), or what?

I am trying to create a simple PHP news system from scratch and I would like to know.
