How to create a book swapping site?

Hello,

I want to create a website which allows students at my college to log in and
list their second hand books for sale. Students would need to log in using
their own individual account, and list the books they have, along with how
much they want to sell them for. All payment would be done offline, so
there would be no need for any online payment facility.

I think PHP / MySQL would be the best approach for this project, but
unfortunately I know very little about either of them. Could anyone please
direct me to useful resources or existing websites so I can see how it is
done?

Many thanks.

Please help me understand the differences, in semantics, browser support and moral preferredness, between the following three methods of swapping content in and out of a page via JavaScript. I would also appreciate any general criticism you have to offer. I don't know yet how to write the degradation-path code for browsers that don't support the DOM methods I'm using, so there are some commented-out paths below. If the content...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
