[nehashri]

hi
i hv just started learning php few dayz ago. im not familiar with jsp.
im using php along with html as a frontend and postgresql as database(backen d). do i need to use driver to connect front end n backend. if yes which should i prefer jdbc or odbc. how should the better one between the 2.
if drivers are not important how should i connect both.
i want different options for the user (like select a perticular name from the database, allow a perticular user to enter with correct password etc basically allow user to choose from the database without database exposed)
plz some 1 help

Hi Neha,
I am not preferring PHP + PostgreSQL. Becoz MySQL is the most suited DBMS for PHP environment.
read this manual to work with PostgreSQL.

to start over with PHP/MYSQL use this tutorial
