My first database project & a paying client!

so, i’ve only been studying php for a short (very short) while, but get this email from a potential client tonight:

[size=1]Hi Brendan,

Thanks for the follow up!

That’s a cool site you have there. I haven’t been able to do a lot with mine yet. What I need will be a web based front end to a database. Basically I’ll need people to fill out info in the web site and then either have it saved automatically to a database or emailed it to me so I can process it. No need for cool looking graphics [/size]:wink:

Let me know if that’s something you’ve done before.[/size]

this gentleman owns a business that buys old houses from people, and then resells them.

well, i havent done it before… but lol… whats that got to do with anything? :stuck_out_tongue:

i’m still VERY MUCH a newbie with php, but feel comfortible enough with web technologies to try and tackle it…

i’ve seen html forms that send the info straight to your email. but if i recall right, the info is sorta hard to read through. and since i believe this guy has a programing background, i’d prefer a way to send the info straight to a database.

any suggestions on approaching this project, or heh heh… maybe where to learn how to do it? are there any pre-built php/html forms out there i could use and modify? HELP!! i might be biting off more than i can chew… but i’d rather have somethitn to chew on than be hungry… :?)
