PHP MYSQL tables

Ok here's my question, it may seem a bit noobish but I'm not great with PHP yet.

I have multiple excel tables that I have converted to HTML and shoved onto a webpage for a tournament.

Here' the link www.espcc.ca/toa2.php

Now that table will be used for the standings and I want it to be easily updateable through the use of Dadabik which I use in other places on the site. Usually I'm just liking a straight text field in the database to a table where the text gets formatted nicely and displayed on the page. I was thinking about doing that for these tables but that means a whole hell of a lot of code for each table cell aswell as the database probably being very messy and hard to navigate to update.

Any suggestions on an easier or more refined way of doing this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Design it cleanly from the ground up? With a proper design, the code should be very clean. This is very basic stuff.

I'd suggest actually attempting to write this then ask us when you encounter problems.

Already encountered a problem with MySQL and DaDaBik, apparently if the field names have any spaces in them DaDaBik won't write the data at all. But I think I have it mostly done now, it just took a lot of grunt work and the document that displays everything is about 6000 lines of code.

Maybe you should consider refining your code.
