MySQL Basics Tutorials

This is a a sneak preview of the new MySQL Basics training section at the In Pictures web site. It is specifically aimed at non-programmers and addresses the need for basic training tutorials covering the popular open-source MySQL database and its use in web site development and programming. It was edited by non-programmers and anything that they did not understand was removed or reworded in a clear fashion. These MySQL tutorials can also be used as a reference on how to do specific tasks using MySQL. Two more tutorials on Perl and PHP, the most widely-used Web programming languages, will be released by In Pictures in the next few weeks. The site editors hope they'll give non-programmers a basic understanding of the fundamental concepts upon which Web server programs are based.
