  phpMyAdmin Basics – Part 1

  This is the first of a two part video where I introduce you to one of the most widely used programs that allows you to configure and use MySQL server – phpMyAdmin.

  phpMyAdmin is a web based program (runs in a web browser) and is built with PHP. The fact that phpMyAdmin uses PHP behind the scenes, should give you an idea of how powerful PHP is with regards to working with MySQL.

  phpMyAdmin Basics – Part 2

  This is part 2, where as we learn about phpMyAdmin, we also learn basic database and MySQL theory. Not so much to put you to sleep, but only enough so that you can move forward in your PHP journey.

SQL Tutorials

Questions?

Just post them on the PHP forum.

Much more to come…
