Hi All,

I'm making a database of information that I want displayed in various parts of a content item. How do I call that information from the database? I read somewhere that you can't use PHP in the content editor to call from an external database, but it might be possible to call from data in the mambo database, so I made the tables in the mambo database already.

To give an example, I would want something like the following in each content item:

Item: (Item Name called from database)
Price: (Item Price called from database)

etc. etc. etc.

Any thoughts?? Thanks!

I see two options if you know how to make the query in php. One is to use a wrapper over your php file. The second is to use a mambot that includes php in content, I found it in mamboportal under mambo 4.5, I don't know if works for newer versions but you can always try.
