Thanks a lot.

Hi ladyane,

well, there is no need for a tutorial in XAMPP because XAMPP is just a compilation of well known webserver software.
The only thing you really need to know about XAMPP is how to start it, where your files have to be saved, how to request your saved files and where the log files are.
Most of this (if not everything) can be find at this two pages:

• http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html
• http://www.apachefriends.org/en/faq-xampp-windows.html

Everything else is a matter of learning html, css, php, sql, js and maybe more. There are very good tutorials for this on the internet.

If you have a specific question, feel free to ask it here. We try our best to help you where we can.

best wishes,
Altrea

thank you so much.
Im on the process in exploring xampp, the problem is, after making database, I dont know what's the next step..

well, maybe you want to insert data in your database
or want to access the database, query it and fetch the data
and then visualize the data?

Thats all possible with php + sql.

yeah, i want to insert data in my database, could I ask for any tutorial on that, a link rather..coz i cant find one..please???????

A good tutorial for php (there are many bad tutorials out there, thats for sure) is this one:

or the video tutorial from in the woods

PHP is known to be an easy to learn language. Thats one of the main reason why it is so popular.

No need to write uppercase only.
The basic structures and functions can be learned very fast so that first successes can be achieved very early. But to really master a language can take time.
I do php programming more than 10 years know and learn new things about that language nearly every day.
