Dixie,

That doesn't matter. Use PHP or any other server-side language as a layer between LC and the database.

Hi friends,

nevertheless MySQL is supported on iOS with starting LiveCode version 4.6.1 :)

Thank you for all of your responses! However, my issue isn't with storing the data as I understand PHP and MYSql fluently, my issue is with converting checkboxes, textfields, etc into data that can be stored on the server. The user also needs to be able to create more textboxes and such.

All help is much appreciated,
Thanks

a checkbosx is true or false, and therefore a boolean value in a db.
a text field is text and therefore text in a db.
etc.

it's quite easy to think about but hard to do ;)
