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).
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.
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 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.
