Okay, I am creating a website for a friend, and am playing with the idea of making it dynamic. She is going to be showcasing her products and what not, and I found that creating every page is just too much of a hassle - this is my problem: how do I add tables to my database within Dreamweaver? I am having the HARDEST TIME with it! I am using CPANEL, have the latest version of MySQL and PHP. PLEASE HELP!! QUICKLY! :)

How could that possibly help over using DW8?

Easiest way to do all this from your computer is to install
http://www.wampserver.com This gives you MySQL, PHP,
PHPMyAdmin and Apache. I then use PHP MyAdmin to
set updatabases, add, delete, change tables, etc.

What's so nice about the Wamp package is that it installs
and configures everything for you in one little package. You
should probably uninstall any of these packages you already
have installed.

The easiest way to add data is to develop your own insert,
change, delete pages in HTML and the programming language
you want to use and add the data that way.

If you have access to PhpMyAdmin from within CPanel, you´ll need to create the tables there -- Dreamweaver won´t create tables for you, it will help you to e.g. add records to existing ones

Is there perhaps code that I could insert into my document that would allow me to do this? If I'm right, isn't this what Wordpress does?

yes, you could add tables to a database with some PHP code, as explained on W3Schools PHP MySQL Create Database and Tables page -- however, using a web-based MySQL database administration tool like phpMyAdmin for setting up the tables is far easier. Please check if phpMyAdmin is available as Cpanel component or not -- shared hosts usually provide it
