Hi I am about to start a new project of mine; create an offline HTML page that will provide a table that can be queried using keywords using multiple terms and based on the result will provide the user the ability use hyperlinks to receive further information.
I started a "database" using excel in the past which did not prove helpful.
So i was hoping to get some advice on where to create the database so that it can be queried through the HTML page.
Cheers

I am Creating a project/web application in which we collect inputs from "Form" and will store them in DB. Will access data in future for further calculation and show the result.
So i want to know in what language i should start that project in php or java?
Details of project/web application:
1. First there will be a pre form which will just create a little entry in db
2. then on the bases of that little entry new complete full test will be started
3. After completion of test from step 2 result will be stored in same data entry for further calculation
4. After calculating result will be shown to user
So how do we plan this kind of project, do we need sessions in them to change those form windows or normal jquery will do that.
Most importantly if someone can relate me with the structure of this project or if someone have same pre created any project, link, website, web application anything they can refer that will be really helpful.
I know i am sounding lame but yes i am beginner in this.
Thanks.
First, the approach will be using PHP where you can store data and manipulate later:
Make a login page will be wise because it will track which user is taking the test, you can use the session here.
Storing data of user once they register and provide test and store in another table.
For showing a result you can use both tables to show the result for every other user.
I am new in web developers world. I have created a website (www.formsify.in) on Wordpress all by learning on internet. I know the basics of coding and programming languages, etc. and the interest so I learn quickly. Now my objective is to let users search and download documents (.pdf). The way I dl it now is by uploading the documents in Media and use buttons to navigate to the page which displays documents in a tabular form.
Now, this works if the documents are less in numbers. But I know the number of documents will increase and it will be very difficult for me to deal with uploading them one by one and creating tables all the time. So I thought to create
(1). Database of documents
(2). Uploading interface
(3). User interface
I want suggestions whether I am thinking in the right direction or can there be a better way to accomplish this. And if this is a right way to do
What database shall I use keeping in mind that I the documents to be stored online so the database should be online.
How should I go about creating the uploading interface keeping in mind that I am not a code-geek.
How shall I be going to design the user interface.
I know these are very wide and open questions. Also because stalwarts here will give me a non-commercial, non-biased view. I just need directions. I was able to create a decent website (as per my standards) when I didn't know much the only thing drove me to do that was that I was hellbent. I will be thankful for any suggestions.
Thanks,

So, basically, you should have 2 tables:
User
Upload
User hold an ID and whatever information you want to have on the user and the upload table holds a unique ID, a user ID (of the uploader) and a path to the document
This way, you can select the uploads (add filters if needed) and you can construct the tables and views using the database results
The uploading is a simple html form that will send the file to a php script that will upload the file to a folder (rename it as well) and insert the new path in the dB.
The user interface just needs to hold a bit of html, with a form element and an action to a php script to handle the upload.
You can find the upload script on w3schools, just add the mysql insert to the database.
I recently inherited a website and they have a simple back-end area which was created using phpmaker. The back-end displays various MYSQL database tables.
There are two tables which hold registration information related to promotions/contests the company runs online. The client wants to begin archiving the registration data monthly, but still have the data accessible for future export or review.
So, can anyone tell me what the best approach would be to achieve this? I read about partitioning and Maatkit, but I'm not sure which - if either - would be a smart choice.
I would prefer to keep the table names the same because the table name is referenced in several instances within the PHP code running the promo/contest applications. I would also like for everything to be 'automatic' or at least executed at the click of a button; though I realize that might not be completely realistic.
I should note that I do not have the phpmaker project file and have been unable to obtain it.
Any help on this matter would be a great help.
MK-Archiver This is a good way to archive live mysql database tables
What MK- Archiver does is to archive rows from a table to another table and/or a file
I am building a web application where users will upload a file (XML format) with some data and some keywords/tags describing the data. This information will then be parsed and stored in MySQL database. Now i am not sure how to store these keywords/tags in the database and how to use them to retrieve appropriate data when the user enters keywords from the application frontend. I know i will have to build some kind of ranking algorithm to rank the keywords but my application is still in its initial stages, so right now I am more concerned about how to retrieve data than the efficiency/relevance of retrieved data.
Please help me or guide me to a resource which can help me.
Thanks!
This is quite an open question, but if you need help implementing tags, see this for some great tips: Recommended SQL database design for tags or tagging
you can store JSON array in mysql>=5.7 for tags like below :
["tag1","tag2",...]
if you use an extra table for store tags , you need to join and search for adding a new tag , its bad way when we have too many tags in database !
I have a database that I would like to poll and post data from similar to a newsfeed. I have already generated the queries, mysql is the db, to provide the data that I require. What I am not certain about is how to use rails to access the DB and provide updates, based upon 3 minute intervals.
I have worked with tutorials and created the opposite effect, where a user enters a feed and it is posted, along with stored in a database. Being fairly new I am not certain how make the app talk to the db on regular intervals and post it to the site.
To sum it up it would be like this:
Web app polls DB --> Web App looks for specific criteria(like customer name and code) -->Data posted in news feed on web site. -->old news scrolls down the page
