Adding country in the prac

THis week's prac was quite different. We set up our databases and this is the first time I have done anything in MySQL which made for an interesting exercise. I managed to work my way through most of the prac however I did have a bit of trouble with the practical this week. I could add the country to the appearance of the website however it just wouldn't register any data I typed in. It was very frustrating! I didn't realise intially that you had to add the information into so many areas of the code and I think this is where I went wrong. I also tried shifting the 'country' variable around in the database to see if that made a difference... it didn't. In the end I couldn't get it to work however I have realised the power of php with a database and how you can just grab things like guestbooks etc. from the internet to use in whatever project you are doing (correctly referenced of course).
