Hi

I hope that I am posting this in the correct forum.
I am relatively new to php and mysql .. I am interested in connecting my dummy website to have a touch screen interface. I know nothing about touch screens. Is there something I should be aware of ... is it possible for touch screens, php and mysql to work together. I am presently looking at the different models of screens. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you.
 
Basically all touch screens are, are big colorful mouse interfaces. when you click on the Screen it acts like a mouse click.

As for PHP since its all server side, what you see on the screen, is just html or whatever is delivered, all PHP processing has been done, and is not present at that point.

As for the interaction, well since the touch screen just acts like a mouse, all you would have to do is make your buttons slightly bigger so you can touch them with a finger instead of a mouse pointer.

In other words, there is no real interaction between PHP and your touchscreen.
