Update on Search Engines

It's going along brilliantly with the aid of the website I mentioned in my previous post. Though I had a few problems (currently i am still solving a few)

1) When I created tables for MySQL- I had almost forgotten, luckily I had previous blog posts to refer to-Anyway, the main problem was that in the tutorial it had told me to type "Type=MyISAM", but it didnt work. I thought I had made a mistake so I tried again. Nothing. So i did some research here http://www.devraju.com/joomla/joomla-1-5-22-installation-sql-problem-typemyisam-solution-enginemyisam/
and found that the word wasnt "type" it was "engine". I tried it and it worked. Thank god. It only took me 15 minutes.

So I created my tables and checked them with the Show Tables thing.

Then, I copied and pasted the PHP codes on the tutorial and edited it slightly since my username was not "root" but "admin" and I had no password. Also I simplified the first bit of the code with the help of this website

It simplified the URL retrieving bit at the beginning. Right now, the theory is quite clear to me but I still cant quite put it into words. So, if i ever need a reminder, I must look at

again

I did all this on my localhost/ testing instead of on my normal files because it's kept simpler this way. However, I've got a few little problems i must fix
