Default How do you make it so that a person can update their own add

I am new to php. But, i thought that it might be the best solution to my situation. And i really like the whole flexibility that includes offer.

I am now familiar with includes.

I would like to create a way for people to upload and update information to my website.

For instance, if i had an advertiser. I thought it would be nice if they could create their own add and update it as they wanted. But, there would have to be some size limitations.

I thought that i would be able to put an include on the page(s) where it belongs. And the client could manage their own add after that.

I thought that maybe creating a form for the person to go to might work.

But, i am not real clear on how to do that coding so that it would write to the file that is going to be included into the page.

So, i didn't want to waste a whole ton of time learning that, only to find that i went the wrong way.

I have datbases on my hosting account. But, again that represents a large learning curve.

I am not afraid to learn stuff. and actually really enjoy it. But, do to time constraints, i would like to learn the stuff in the best order.

Any suggestions on the best way to do this would be greatly appreciated.
