Getting Started: Can DaDaBIK Do This?

[Nancy]

I want a PHP/MySql application that will display to the user , on a web page, a list of files i have for downloading, showing the file size, the link to click to download the file, the file date, and maybe 1 or 2 more columns.

Can DaDaBIK do this?

And what DaDaBIK file must I point to in order for the user to view this database and access the files thru the web ?

Thanks in advance!

Nancy: List of files....YES; show file size....YES; file date....YES; maybe 1 or 2 more columns....YES.

A link to download the file? I believe so but I have not done this. Search "hyper link" in this forum. You will see others that appear to be doing exactly what you describe.

Now, as for "pointing to DaDaBik": As I'm sure you are aware, in standard HTML code for web pages, the "index.html or index.htm" file is loaded as the default or first page loaded for viewing.

EXAMPLE: Entering "www.yourdomain.com" is the same as entering "www.yourdomain.com/index.html"

In the case of DaDaBik, the index.php file is the default file. Therefore; if the DIRECTORY you have placed the DaDaBik files is named "search", then entering "www.yourdomain.com/search" will load (by default) the DaDaBik index.php page for viewing.

I hope this helps. Good luck!

Hi,
The only thing that DaDaBIk can't provide at this moment (you have to write some additional code to get it) is the file size.
