synchronise between many slaves

I am trying to setup a situation like this:

Web server with contacts database (lots of tables relating to each other)

Lots of clients connect to the web server to update local database then use
the data off line.

Clients update local data then need to connect to the web server to update
local data to the web server and update locate from the web server.

Is this possible?

How should I start?

Do I need to setup 2 way replication?

Do I need to work it out in the PHP programming on the clients?

This is commonly known as the "briefcase model". Try looking that up on
Google to get started.
