Wedding Registry

I want to make a wedding registry for my site, but I don't know how best to do it...Just a simple script to where someone can come, check a box, and then press a button to remove it from the list is all i want. What would be the best method to use? Not looking for someone to do it but just to point me in right direction... thanks

RE: Wedding Registry

Have you got a database like mysql?

All you have to do is make a html form, however you wnat to design that, the that should post the info submited to a php script.
that php script should then input the data into the database or delete it, however you want.

RE: Wedding Registry

You could save the information in a txt file aswell, both is possÃ*ble, but I myself think databases are better than txt files, but thats up to you

Ok, so if i end up going down the path of doing a txt file how would i do it? i know how to add to a text file from a php script but i do not know how to delete. would i pull all the lines from the txt file and put it all into an array. explode it into sections and then whichever check box is checked have it remove that array from the file? or is that even possible like that?

Perhaps you could use the Creating a News System with PHP - Part 2 that Matt wrote to do what you want. You can find it at www.codewalkers.com/tutorials/7/1.html

RE: Wedding Registry

a database is far easier to use and easier to organise i would suggest using one but its up to you. Well lets put it this way it will save you alot of code to use a database.
