First Script

Hi all, I've been watching this list for some time now but this is my first post. I'm new (and I mean new) to PHP. Actually, I'm studying it for now. I would like to develop a script that let's me input the actual date (preferibly automatically) and the total time I've spent on a dial-up Internet connection, so it shows me the result of the past... let's say... 30 days in a table and the sumtotal of the time connected. I've been developing one but it doesn't seem to work fine (by mistake, I even created a loop that hangs the Browser window ;-). Can anyone develop a short script like this so I can compare it with mine and learn where my mistakes were? I'm using PHP 4 and MySQL. Thanx in advance for your help and congrats for building such an interesting mailing support list like this. Cesar Aracena Neuquén, Argentina.
