I need to create a table on my database to allow people to register onto my site.

The problem is, i have NO idea how/what to do to create a table, ive looked at several tutorials on the net and they all talk a load of crap.

In PHP My Admin it has a area to create a database, but how many fields do i need? and when i press 'ok' it comes up with a load more complicated choices i need to make :|

Could anybody enlighten me?

ASAP as we need to get this project done soon please :)

No offense intended but it sounds like you first need to get a handle on databases in general.

http://www.mysql.com will have resources to explain the load of complicated choices

What fields you need depends on how much registration information you want to have them enter and store. Maybe to start you might want to look at using a prebuilt registration script
