could some one help me

[zero_0_cool]

i need some help! i have an online rpg found here (http://www.darkrpg.coolfreepages.com) and the page in which i'm having people join at needs some place to store the data! i can't use the mail() because my server diabled it! i don't have ne clue on hoe to save to a text file! but what i really need to know is how to connect to a db and how to set up tables with the db!!! i'm very new to the world of mysql but have been working in php for a moth and a half! so this really is confusing the hell out of me!

A good tutorial can be found at a great site called Webmasterbase.com (http://www.webmasterbase.com/article/228)

This should be suitable for you, it contains a good primer on PHP and also expliains clearly how it all works.

Note you will need to do a bit of coding to make Kevin Yanks skeleton script into something safe - for instance you must have some verification on the input of forms.
