Adding a new field to a table with php

Khaiya

I am working on being able to edit my database from a site for my class. I have it so I can insert into the table new values, delete values, change values, and now I need to make it so I can add a new field. Does anyone know anything about this sort of thing?

You need to use the ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN command, which could be slightly different depending on which database you use.

You would run this SQL from your PHP code similar to how you run your SELECT or UPDATE query.

This reference will show the syntax used for MySQL database.
