Loading ...How do I build a database to use for my ecomerce program?
I’m trying to setup a .php shoppingcart but don’t understand how or just where to establish a database and exactly what content should be placed in the database.
Maybe I wasn’t specific enough. First reqirement in setup is to place the path to the database. ? was “Where?” Is it in the binfile or images or public or do I create a folder called db? And does the images go in the db folder or just what?

I would say to use MySQL, and to set up an order table to log what people are doing. However, if you don’t know what should go in the database, how can you be sure you need one?

In my opinion, look upto MySQL, it is the best database for your needs. Incase you have queries regarding its setup, you can lookup to the following professional forums where people discuss such problems :
