Pachino Posted December 20, 2012 Report Posted December 20, 2012 Hi guys, Just practicing here making a mock database for my DVD collection. Im brand new to this. I have made a few fields for DVD title and date etc etc. But I want to add a field that would allow me to link to the official film website. From the options in myPHPadmin, what field type would I select?
falkencreative Posted December 20, 2012 Report Posted December 20, 2012 Since there isn't a type specifically for URLs, you would just select a text or varchar type with enough characters for your url.
spiralmind Posted December 21, 2012 Report Posted December 21, 2012 Check out mysql's information on datatypes to get a grasp of the knowledge. This is required learning if you plan on seriously using MySQL. http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/data-types.html
