Hello i have a website and i want to make it an app. I use php and mysql. What is the best way to start?

What have you done so far? I have developed PHP/MySQL applications (for internal purposes at Nokia). Making it an application? What does it do? Does it serve a rational purpose? Please describe what it does, and how it does it.

I ve done some files with Adobe Flash Builder for PHP with Zend Framework that runs with Adobe Air. But i ve been told that Android and IOS apps dont support Flash Player. Basically i already knew that but thats another thing that i am using right? Or Android and Iphone dont support Java?
This is some script i ve done far. It connects with the database and displays users, user info, create a new user and so on.

@SimonIoa can we please keep discussion to single thread???

As I said in other thread I would not recommend Flash based appplication as it is not supported by Android neither iPhone. However you can do HTML 5, CSS and JavaScript and use stuff like cordova which should help you to create hybrid app that will run on both platforms(Android and iOS). Otherwise you need to do native development.

ok thanks i got it. Any link of how to start?
