Alright, I have no idea what I'm doing with this so I'll apologise now if I don't make everything clear.
I'm keeping track of the money I make over the summer. I have a database named "work" with a table named "money." In that table I have a column named "total" where I have the total amount I earned that day.
I would like to display the sum of that column. I just have this on my computer so it doesn't matter if it's ugly coding or anything as long as it works.
I'll be happy to provide you with any additional information you might need to help me out. I'm using Xampp and MySQL 5.0.21, made everything in the PHPMyAdmin they have in there.

Where do I put that? Does it need to go inside of everything? I've learned by editing, so my knowledge is kind of all over the place.

Just run that query when you want to see the total.
Have you considered using an Excel worksheet.

Yeah, mostly I just wanted to do it this way. It's obviously not turning out the way I wanted it to though.
