MySQL - to retrieve information from a database, you first need to have a database. That's where MySQL comes in. MySQL is a relational database management system, or RDBMS. It's a software package that is very good at organizing and managing large amounts of information. MySQL also makes that information readily accessible by using a server-side scripting language like PHP.
PHP - this is a server-side scripting language. With PHP installed, your Web server will be able to read a new file (called a "PHP script") that can retrieve information instantly from a database and insert it into a web page before sending it to the browser that requested it. PHP is completely free to download and use.
Check with your current Web host. Make sure they have already installed MySQL and PHP on your Web server. Most web hosting companies already have it installed. If not find a web host that provides this service.

Search online and you'll find a range of Podcasts available on nearly every topic imaginable. They range from entertainment focused to educational to business oriented and everywhere in between.<

“So what do you do?” I’m casually asked as I pay for my meal at a local restaurant. I’ve heard this question a thousand times before and each time I’m tempted to say something simple, something easy. Sometimes I say I’m a writer. Other times I’m a business consultant. Once I even said I was a web designer. But do you wanna know the truth?I’m none of those. And yet, at the same time, I’m all of them. You see I work full time from home in what is casually call
