Using mysql in Drupal, Part 1

In Using MySQL, we look at how to use database queries to get information from a database, as well as how to insert, delete and modify that information. Queries are the backbone of any data-driven functionality, and when you're done watching this video, you'll have all of the essential tools you need to start writing code in Drupal that interfaces with the database. We'll start with some basic explanations of the major components of working with a database, including the database itself, tables, rows, and queries. Then, we work through increasingly complex queries to hone your query-building skills.
