I am creating a website that will be connected with the database. I have created a database in SQL Server.
I want to connect one table with one html page, so that I can view the table on that page. In this way I will connect all the SQL tables with each html page.
I know I have to use php/javaquery!
Please help me with appropriate codes!
Also I am new to SQL. I am learning!
Please explain the changes that I will have to do in the codes you provide to enable it in my system.
i got these 2 codes:which will work for my requirement? code1:
$result = mysqli_query($con,"SELECT * FROM Orders");
echo "<table>";
echo "<table border='1'>
<tr>
<th>ID</th>
<th>orderNumber</th>
<th>Price</th>
<th>customerName</th>
<th>salesRep</th>
<th>DatePicker</th>
<th>shipMethod</th>
<th>trackingNumber</th>
<th>Statuscheck</th>
<th>Edit</th>
</tr>";
while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result))
{
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>" . $row['ID'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['orderNumber'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['Price'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['customerName'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['salesRep'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['DatePicker'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['shipMethod'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['trackingNumber'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['Statuscheck'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['Edit'] . "</td>";
echo "</tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
?>
code2:
<?php
$host=""; // Host name
$username=""; // Mysql username
$password=""; // Mysql password
$db_name=""; // Database name
$tbl_name=""; // Table name
// Connect to server and select databse.
mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect");
mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB");
$sql="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name ORDER BY id DESC";
// OREDER BY id DESC is order result by descending
}
$result=mysql_query($sql);
?>
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="jquery.js"></script>
</head>
<table id="forum" width="90%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#CCCCCC">
<thead>
<tr>
<th width="6%" align="center" bgcolor="#E6E6E6"><strong>#</strong></td>
<th width="43%" align="center" bgcolor="#E6E6E6"><strong>Topic</strong></td>
<th width="10%" align="center" bgcolor="#E6E6E6"><strong>Author</strong></td>

<th width="13%" align="center" bgcolor="#E6E6E6"><strong>Replies</strong></td>
<th width="13%" align="center" bgcolor="#E6E6E6"><strong>Date/Time</strong></td>
</tr>
</thead>
<?php
// Start looping table row
while($rows=mysql_fetch_array($result)){
?>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><? echo $rows['threadtype']; ?></td>
<td bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><a href="view_topic.php?id=<? echo $rows['id']; ?>">
<? echo $rows['topic']; ?></a><BR></td>
<td align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><? echo $rows['email']; ?></td>
<td align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><? echo $rows['view']; ?></td>
<td align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><? echo $rows['reply']; ?></td>
<td align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><? echo $rows['datetime']; ?></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
<?php
// Exit looping and close connection
}
mysql_close();
?>

<td colspan="6" align="right" bgcolor="#E6E6E6"><strong>Create New Topic</strong> td>
</tr>

If I understood your questions correctly, you want to display the data that's retrieved from database. I am not a php expert, but based on the code, let me try to explain.
1) First connect to the database using the connections string provided and fetch the data
<?php
$host=""; // Host name
$username=""; // Mysql username
$password=""; // Mysql password
$db_name=""; // Database name
$tbl_name=""; // Table name
// Connect to server and select databse.
mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect");
mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB");
$sql="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name ORDER BY id DESC";
// OREDER BY id DESC is order result by descending
}
$result=mysql_query($sql);
?>
2) Create an HTML table to display the data. (First create the table header)
<table id="forum" width="90%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#CCCCCC">
<thead>
<tr>
<th width="6%" align="center" bgcolor="#E6E6E6"><strong>#</strong></td>
<th width="43%" align="center" bgcolor="#E6E6E6"><strong>Topic</strong></td>
<th width="10%" align="center" bgcolor="#E6E6E6"><strong>Author</strong></td>
<th width="15%" align="center" bgcolor="#E6E6E6"><strong>Views</strong></td>
<th width="13%" align="center" bgcolor="#E6E6E6"><strong>Replies</strong></td>
<th width="13%" align="center" bgcolor="#E6E6E6"><strong>Date/Time</strong></td>
</tr>
</thead>
3) Now dynamically add the data returned by the php code to this HTML table
while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result))
{
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>" . $row['ID'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['orderNumber'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['Price'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['customerName'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['salesRep'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['DatePicker'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['shipMethod'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['trackingNumber'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['Statuscheck'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['Edit'] . "</td>";
echo "</tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
?>
4) Complete the HTML table
<tfoot>
<tr>
<td colspan="6" align="right" bgcolor="#E6E6E6"><strong>Create New Topic</strong> td>
</tr>
</tfoot>
</table>
5) Finally as best practice to close the connection to the database to avoid any unwanted issues + performance gain.
<?php
// Exit looping and close connection
}
mysql_close();
?>
