WEB DATABASE DEVELOPMENT

I have a basic knowledge of HTML, PHP and MySQL. I needed to build a web page through which visitors to the page can fill form and upload the cv into the database. Also, I need other users like prospective employers to be able to search though the database for registered users.

I have done similar exercise b4 but it was done in my university where i login in to the unix thru telnet to use sql to build the database. Now, I don't have such priviledge but i still need a database to store some information where visitors to the web page will be able to visit and search thru the database.

My question is how do one build a database without having access to any server (like my university)? All I have now is access to the internet and with my little knowledge of HTML, PHP and MySQL. Please, advice.

Thanks.

Best solution would be to install a server on your own PC. Depending on the OS you are using, I'd say that a combination of Apache, PHP, MySQL and phpMyAdmin would suit you best. Then your users can logon to your pc server and you can still use a server database.

These server applications can be installed separately or in a package. Look at XAMPP for a complete XAMPP package (for Mac, Windows, Linux, etc.) or at the WAMP package.
