I wasn't sure which catergory to put this into as I'm asking about the use of PHP and MYSQL but for an product catalogue database. I have checked through the posts on this section and can't find anything specific to my question.
Which is: Can anyone direct me to a tutorial on how to build a database, specifically a product catalogue, using phpMyAdmin? (The reason why phpmyadmin as I have databases bundled in with my web hosting which are accessible by this method.)
My website is all html and css at the moment, with a paypal shopping cart that works fine for me at the moment. The only thing I want a catalogue for is so when someone buys something, it can be taking off the product catalogue e.g. so if someone tries to buy 3 bags and I only have 2, they can't.
So, all I want at present is to change this particular part of my site. I've looked at OScommerce and think it might be too comprehensive for my needs (also, I can't even understand how to intergrate it to my website.)
I'm keen to learn PHP and MySQL myself - I'm working through one of the excellent tutorials posted by AlexGeek ('PHP Resources for Beginners') so the ? and $ may eventually make sense, but can't find anything about what to do on existing sites with a cart and phpMYadmin.
This is beginning to sound like it should be on the PHP forums so apologies if I've chosen the wrong one after all!
Here's my site if you need to look at it.

As you can see, it's not very professional looking and is all hand coded, but it's a start!
