Clueless about MySQL but need to set it up fast.
Hi all,
For reasons I do not want to get into, a new client of mine wants to sever all ties with their previous web designer/host. They've asked that I take over their site but leave it exactly the way it is, just under my control. I contacted their old web provider and he has packaged up the site and send it to me. His only instructions to me is that whoever is hosting the site will need to support PHP and MySQL. I know that my hosting provider supports both. I don't expect any help from him and I don't blame him, I am after all taking one of his clients away.
Now I have all these files and I'm not sure what to do with them. My knowledge of PHP is extremely limited, having only used it on two sites in the past, and I've never used MySQL. My client's site, http://www.sjacornwall.ca has an admin section where they can add/ edit/delete course information. I presume that is what uses the SQL. Looking through the provided files I see that all are .php files except for one .css. one .js and one .inc. I know what the .css and .js are but what is the .inc file? There's also a folder/ directory called "Admin" that has the various PHP files used to administer the client editable pages.
The site is complete and as far as I know I have all the files, I just don't know what to do to implement them. Can anyone tell me where to start? I need to get this site switched over ASAP. Preferably by the weekend.
Thanks
