I am using phpMyAdmin and currently having trouble trying to make a foreign key. table album - soloID -> table solo artist - id Already tried:

  • Indexing soloID
  • Different sites: youtube, stackoverflow...etc

After searching, I have found nobody actually made a detailed tutorial on how to make a foreign key for somebody who already created tables. Hopefully, somebody can help me here.

The world doesn't run on tutorials, it runs on specifications and documentation. Here's the manual for foreign keys: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/innodb-foreign-key-constraints.html Make sure to read the section about constraints, and if you're not aware foreign keys are only supported on InnoDB tables, not MyISAM tables.
