Ok I have a PostgreSQL server with a Database titled brittains_db that I only have PuTTY access to. I can also upload via FTP to the web server which has access to PostgreSQL and the Database somehow...

I have made a SQL file named logins.sql

CREATE TABLE logins(
    userName VARCHAR(25) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
    password VARCHAR(25) NOT NULL,
    firstName NOT NULL,
    lastName NOT NULL,
    ageDay INTEGER NOT NULL,
    ageMonth INTEGER NOT NULL,
    ageYear INTEGER NOT NULL,
    email VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
    createDate DATE
)

Then I made a form to get all that information.

<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];  ?>" method="post" >
    <table>
        <tr>
            <td class="signupTd">
                First Name:&nbsp;
            </td>
            <td>
                <input type="text" name="firstNameSignupForm" value="<?php echo $firstNameSignup; ?>" size="20"/>
            </td>
            <td>
                <?php echo $firstNameSignupError; ?>
            </td>
        </tr>
... code continues

I had it save all the information in variables if page run on POST

$firstNameSignup=trim($_POST["firstNameSignupForm"]);
$lastNameSignup=trim($_POST["lastNameSignupForm"]);
$userNameSignup=trim($_POST["userNameSignupForm"]);
$passwordSignup=trim($_POST["passwordSignupForm"]);
$passwordConfirmSignup=trim($_POST["passwordConfirmSignupForm"]);
$monthSignup=trim($_POST["monthSignupForm"]);
$daySignup=trim($_POST["daySignupForm"]);
$yearSignup=trim($_POST["yearSignupForm"]);
$emailSignup=trim($_POST["emailSignupForm"]);
$emailConfirmSignup=trim($_POST["emailConfirmSignupForm"]);

All information was then validated Now comes the points where I need to upload it to PostgreSQL

How do I put my table in Postgre? How do I insert my information into my table?

and how would I recall that information to display it?
