Hi
I have a mysql table with contents
the structure is here:
Now I have one record in it:
I want to read and print the content of this table to html This is my code:
<?php
include("config.php");
$global_dbh = mysql_connect($hostname, $username, $password)
or die("Could not connect to database");
mysql_select_db($db)
or die("Could not select database");
function display_db_query($query_string, $connection, $header_bool, $table_params) {
// perform the database query
$result_id = mysql_query($query_string, $connection)
or die("display_db_query:" . mysql_error());
// find out the number of columns in result
$column_count = mysql_num_fields($result_id)
or die("display_db_query:" . mysql_error());
// Here the table attributes from the $table_params variable are added
print("<TABLE $table_params >\n");
// optionally print a bold header at top of table
if($header_bool) {
print("<TR>");
for($column_num = 0; $column_num < $column_count; $column_num++) {
$field_name = mysql_field_name($result_id, $column_num);
print("<TH>$field_name</TH>");
}
print("</TR>\n");
}
// print the body of the table
while($row = mysql_fetch_row($result_id)) {
print("<TR ALIGN=LEFT VALIGN=TOP>");
for($column_num = 0; $column_num < $column_count; $column_num++) {
print("<TD>$row[$column_num]</TD>\n");
}
print("</TR>\n");
}
print("</TABLE>\n");
}
function display_db_table($tablename, $connection, $header_bool, $table_params) {
$query_string = "SELECT * FROM $tablename";
display_db_query($query_string, $connection,
$header_bool, $table_params);
}
?>
<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Displaying a MySQL table</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
<TABLE><TR><TD>
<?php
//In this example the table name to be displayed is static, but it could be taken from a form
$table = "submits";
display_db_table($table, $global_dbh,
TRUE, "border='2'");
?>
</TD></TR></TABLE></BODY></HTML>
