I am such a beginner but I had gone this far….
Here is the code:
So I’d like to get a $name variable (zipcode) received from a database or any file.
Everytime the url/site refreshes the next or randomly picked zipcode should be the new variable for $name
and the one was just used should be deleted from the database. I guess it’s like an array…
I have a mysql database on my server set up which I have to connect to….help would be nice there too 
.
I am wondering if I could run the database from my local computer without connecting to any server.
Any help would be great!

One of the patterns that came up today in a code review was the Tester-Doer Pattern. One sees this pattern a lot especially when the ?doer? side of the equation has a pretty decent performance penalty. Essentially, you test a condition to make sure you need to do the ?doer? operation and pay that penalty. Sometimes this can cause race conditions. Read more…
