Populating Your Table

To start populating the my_contacts table, open http://127.0.0.1/contact_menu.php. If you've already logged in, you'll see your administrative menu. Otherwise, log in using the username (admin) and password (abc123).

  1. Select the Add a Contact menu item.

You will see a blank form with numerous fields for adding contact information, as well as a submit button and a link back to the main menu.

  1. Now complete the form! Only two fields are required (unless you changed that on your own): the first name and last name. The following figure shows a sample contact.

    Click To expand
  2. Click on the Add Contact to System button.

    You should see a confirmation screen as shown next.

Add several of your own contacts to the system. Feel free to make some mistakes, because in the next chapter, you create a set of record-modification scripts.
