hi adrian

yes, you can have tables in the same database that are unrelated -- hey,
don't worry, you'll do fine, at least you aren't setting up separate
databases  ;o)

reading your description, though, i have a suspicion that the data about
the one site and the data about the other site are the same *types* of
data, in which case you'll want them in the same table (or tables, if it
takes several tables to hold a single site's data)

this all sounds way too abstract -- can you give specific examples of the
types of fields you have in the tables?
