Well, I’ve been searching around, but it’s hard to find a helpful answer to my questions on Databases, so I figured I’d come to ask you knowledgeable folks. Basically I’m working on a website which involves sections for these different organizations. Each organization has it’s own events calendar going on, which of course needs to be updated. This is, however, rather labor intensive on my part, so I searched for a better way. Follow so far? I hope you do.
Well, I read on this website talking about databases and how they can be used to create calendars which others can update with a simple web form. “Brilliant!” I said to myself, I often talk to myself. And as it turns out, their web server plan included a database. So I said to myself “I’ll set up this calendar thing and all will be well.” Now to the troubling part, I have no clue how to do this, and the sooner I can get it done, the much better. I value my spare time and simply can’t stand to wait for me to learn a new language, though I have no qualms of doing just that.
So I hear I need to use ASP. But, I don’t think my server supports asp. I tried it, but no dice. So how else can I use my database? What language? Or, is there any saintly soul that would give little old me the necessary coding to display and update database info? I’ll must likely fiddle with it later on, but I have no idea of what to do, what to learn, or even time to learn it yet. So, anybody feeling helpful today?
