Is it some places I can find "finished" php sites? So all I have to do is insert text and stuff like that....

You see, I can nothing about php, and I shall make a mp3 site, and I shall make lots of pages (mp3 archive A-Z)

that's just a simple $_GET['aid'] or $_GET['site']

this would return a value for it, then you could include a differnt file(eg: @include $_GET['site']; ) this allows you to split things up.

Basically, you need to understand how to program in PHP and how to work with databases (probably MySQL in most cases). If you have programming experience already, simply going to www.php.net and www.mysql.com is a good start. If you are not an experienced programmer, a few small tutorial sites are probably not going to be enough. To really do stuff with PHP you need to know how to program. You don't have to be able to write guidance systems for the Space Shuttle, but you need to understand basic concepts such as arrays, flow control, string manipulation, etc. In that case, you might want to sit down with a book like PHP & MySQL for Dummies and work through the examples, or if you have a little programming background and a basic understanding of databases, the O'Reilly book Web Database Applications with PHP and MySQL.
