Sum / Add, union-2-table site, PHP-MySQL Course

If you wish to install a local testing server, you can download the XAMPP package for Windows http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html

Once XAMPP is a completely installed. XAMPP is an easy to install Apache distribution containing MySQL, PHP and Perl.

You can use the XAMPP Control Panel to start your testing server.

Click Start next to both Apache and MySQL to start the services.
Starting these services can take a few seconds. When it is complete, 'Running' will display beside each option.

To make your testing server start automatically when your computer starts, you can check the Svc checkbox beside both options.
If the XAMPP Control Panel is not already running, go to C:\xampp\control.exe to open the panel.

1- XAMPP Control Panel

With your testing server now installed and running, there are a few final steps you should take to make sure everything is configured to work perfectly.

Open a web browser such as Firefox or Internet Explorer.
In the Address bar, enter http://localhost.
You should see a XAMPP splash screen with language options.
Choose your preferred language.
You should now see a confirmation window informing you that 'You have successfully installed XAMPP on your system'

2- List of Files

the php, sql and files Folder corresponding, stored at union-2-table Folder:
1- unionall.sql - SQL file
2- index.php and db.php - php files

Defining a Dreamweaver Site

Once a testing server is set up, either locally or using a remote hosting service, you will need to define a site for Dynamic Development in Dreamweaver

Step 1: Start the site definition

In Dreamweaver go to Site -> New Site.

Note: you can edit an existing site definition by going to Site -> Manage Sites. Select the site you wish to modify, then click the edit button.

Step 2: Enter the local Information

In the first section of the site definition, you will set the Local Information. This sets the Site Name, and local path for files in your site.

When using XAMPP in a windows system, it may be that the site root is mapped to: C:\xampp\htdocs
so the new site folder would be created under that location: C:\xampp\htdocs\union-2-table

In this screen shot, using DW CS6 on a Windows system with XAMPP installed. you will set the Local Information. This sets the Site Name, and local path for files in your site.
Site Name: union-2-table
local Site Folder: C:\xampp\htdocs\union-2-table

Step 3: Servers

The next setting is to connect to servers. In DW CS6 and above, this done by selecting the servers section:

and clicking the plus icon to define a new server connection.
at Basic tab, For the Name you can enter the same name as the Site definition, When using a local testing server, set Connect Using to "Local/Network"

Set the Server Folder to the same location as the local files set in the initial Site Settings.
Server Name:           union-2-table
connect using:             Local/Network
Server Folder:          C:\xampp\htdocs\union-2-table
Web URL:                http://localhost/union-2-table

at Advanced tab,

Click the advanced button and set the Application model to PHP / MySQL
Server Model: PHP MySQL

then click Save.
Once the connection is defined, there are check boxes to set the connection as a testing or remote connection, check the testing option.

and then Click Save, the Dreamweaver dialog box display:

Step 4: Manage Sites

you can edit an existing site definition by going to Site -> Manage Sites. Your Sites: union-2-table

then click Done

Create A Database

In this section, we'll look into how to create a database. A database is used to store information for your site.
Copy unionall.sql file from ...\\8-Course, union-2-table site, PHP-MySQL\union-2-table Folder to folder C:\xampp\htdocs\union-2-table

Most web hosts use a control panel for managing your site, in the control panel they will have a way to create a MySQL Database. Once a database has been created, you can use phpMyAdmin to edit it.

phpMyAdmin is also available using most Local Testing server packages like XAMPP. The Start pages for those server will have a link to open phpMyAdmin.

In phpMyAdmin, go to the Import tab. Use this .sql script (C:\xampp\htdocs\union-2-table\unionall.sql) to create the unionall database that we will be using :

Step 1: import SQL file
On the import tab, Click the chose file button, and select the unionall.sql file that you downloaded, and click the Go button to have the database created:

Message about unionall.sql display: Import has been succcessully ...

On the Browse tab, to be Displays: the Table "donor" of Database "unionall"

On the Browse tab, to be Displays: the Table "volunteer" of Database "unionall"

index.php page File

Now that a site and a database are created, lets connect the 2 together.

In the Save As option, enter "index.php"

In the Where section, select the folder for your site.

Step 3: the Site has been defined
- testing server
- Once the site has been defined, at Dreamweaver - Dw display current Message: "This page may have dynamically-related files that can only be discovered by the server. Discover | Preferences.

Step 4: Create the connection to the database

1) open the database panel by going to Window -> Database.

2) In the database panel, click the plus button and select MySQL Connection

3) enter the:
connection name:        conunion
MySQL server:          localhost
User name:                 root
Password:
Database:                   unionall

when click Select Button, to be display Select Database box, select unionall and then click Ok

5) Click OK

Step 5: The paragraph Format, the design

Place your cursor in the one cell then Go to Format-> Paragraph Format-> Paragraph.

the Paragraph to be selected ...

Step 6: The Design and Code of index.php

the Group of operation consist of the main file - index.php and the part file - db.php of the main

1- The Design of index.php
