Hi:
I'm a novice regarding MySQL management with perl.
I have read several online tutorials and managed so far to create a Table, insert a row, make some edits to specific items already saved in specific rows, display the last row entered, etc, in other words I feel I've done considerable progress.
Now I'm converting an online auction script to work from flat file database to MySQL. When a user enters a new item in the auction a flat file is created to save all the bids his items get until it's sold.
So far all I have learned through tutorials is how to manipulate a database already created through the cPanel, but now I need to create a new database on the fly from my perl script for each item entered.
I have a "Business" share hosting Linux server account at hostgator.com. But their support team cannot give scripting advice.
Can you give me some tips..??
