Oh, is that all? Entire books are written about these things but, the short answer is:


MySql database
A free, online database commonly accessed by php scripts. Basically, the free version of SQL. (SQL Lite is another freebie that I'm using
with Visual Basic 2005)

Database
A table or group of tables used to store data in a standard X,Y format

Database Password
Database Username

Come on...

A quick example of a database would be an airport table:

Rows = Airports
Columns = Data fields

ICAO Code,IATA Code,Name ,City,Country,Latitude,Longitude,Runways,Longest Rwy, etc.

The row for Boston Logan would look like this:

KBOS,BOS,Logan International,Boston,United States,42.3643611,-71.0051944,5,10083, etc.
