newbie question

hi, i want to create a web site powered by a sql database, the user will not be able to edit or create any data, just search and view.

what type of a user should i create for this and what other suggestions do you have?

thanks in advance

the “User” for SQL is not acctually, the end “user” but is the “script” user, as in, the web page

you need to put a username and password when connecting to the database, and thats where the “user” comes in
