Hi,

Looking to build a dynamic site using PHP/MySQL.

I have a CSV file with over 20,000 entries with the following
structure-

'1591', 'tones', '100280', '50s', 'Blue Moon', 'Elvis Presley', 'Blue
Moon,elvis presley,grease', '', '', '',
'http://www.mms3.com/data/ringtones/100280.wma'

The file will be updated on a regular basis so will have to be able to
import changes to the database easily.

Which equates to the third listing here-
http://www.jazytones.com/ringtone_1.html

What I want to do is add this file into a MySQL database and then use
a small number of PHP template files to create a site.

I have lots of experience with HTML, but have avoided database driven
sites and server side scripting until now.

The server has Apache 2.040, PHP (not sure which version) installed,
phpMyAdmin 2.5.1 and MySQL 3.23.58. I can upgrade if required.

I really need something online within weeks and don't have the time to
devote to learning enough of this myself in this time frame, so
considering hiring someone.

I'm after something along these lines - http://www.jazytones.com/ but
without the javascript and generated dynamically (the above is a
static affiliate site <not mine, but uses the same affiliate links>).

This site http://www.bananatones.co.uk/ is kind of what I'm after (not
the look, the structure). I'm not too concerned about the look right
now, I can sort that out later.

How easy/hard would this be for a first PHP/MySQL project and if I go
with hiring someone what sort of cost am I looking at?

Or are there short cuts I can take, maybe a place to buy a templae
that I could adapt for this?

Thanks
