Php And Xml

Recommended Posts

I am wondering. Is there any possible way to use XML as a database with PHP like MySQL and if so how would I do it. I believe this could be a very handy feature in some of my future scripts. Could someone please tell me.

Isn't that the same with any other flatfile, just slightly more work? Unless you don't mind others viewing the information stored in there, you should stick to MySQL for security reasons.

Check out XAMPP as a one-click installer for adding php, mysql, phpmyqdmin, and a bunch of other stuff to your computer for testing scripts and practicing your coding.Google it.

you can use XML to store data, but xml use only for descripting data then storing data in xml. you can use php xml function to get xml parents and childs into arrays. mysql can be control in phpmyadmin. many host give it with cpanel program to manage web site, and they put phpmyadmin, so you can change database from web browser, like firefox or internet explorer. i don't know your nintendo has web browser
