I'm trying to get user input from a html form and then use that data to change a row in a mysql database. It also is supposed to load a list of the current table so the user can pick which row to change. Here is my code so far
<?php
require('conn.php');
error_reporting( E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_STRICT & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_WARNING);
ini_set("display_errors", 1);
if( isset($_POST['send'])){
$Change=htmlspecialchars($_POST["change"]);
$Product_Name = htmlspecialchars($_POST["product_name"]);
$Stock= htmlspecialchars($_POST["stock"]);
$Price=htmlspecialchars($_POST["price"]);
$update="UPDATE product SET Product_Name='$Product_Name', Stock='$Stock', Price='$Price' WHERE $Product_Name='$Change'";
if (mysqli_query($conn,$update)){
echo "Record updated";
} else{
echo "Error updating record: " . mysqli_error($conn);
}
}
$sql = "SELECT * FROM product";
$result = mysqli_query($conn,$sql);
if(!$result){
echo 'Could not run query: ' . mysqli_error($conn);
exit;
}
print "<table border='1'>\n";
print " <tr><th>Product Name</th><th>Total Stock</th><th>Price</th> </tr>\n";
while($row = mysqli_fetch_row($result)){
print " <tr>\n";
print "<td>".$row['0']."</td>";
print "<td>".$row['1']."</td>";
print "<td>".$row['2']."</td>";
print " </tr>\n";
}
print "</table>\n";
mysqli_close($conn);
?>
<html>
<body>
<form action="update.php" method="post">
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td>Row to Change</td>
<td align="center"><input type="text" name="change" size="30" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Product Name</td>
<td align="center"><input type="text" name="product_name" size="30" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>In Stock</td>
<td align="center"><input type="text" name="stock" size="30" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Price</td>
<td align="center"><input type="text" name="price" size"30" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Submit</td>
<td align="center"><input type="submit" name="send" value="send"></td>
</tr>
However, currently the page is blank when I load it up. The html portion works fine part of the as well as this portion of the php code
$sql = "SELECT * FROM product";
$result = mysqli_query($conn,$sql);
if(!$result){
echo 'Could not run query: ' . mysqli_error($conn);
exit;
}
print "<table border='1'>\n";
print " <tr><th>Product Name</th><th>Total Stock</th><th>Price</th> </tr>\n";
while($row = mysqli_fetch_row($result)){
print " <tr>\n";
print "<td>".$row['0']."</td>";
print "<td>".$row['1']."</td>";
print "<td>".$row['2']."</td>";
print " </tr>\n";
}
print "</table>\n";
mysqli_close($conn);
?>
When I added the rest it only showed a blank page. What can I do to change this and get the form input to update and change the respective row in my database?

Where does this braket close?
if( isset($_POST['send'])){
close properly the brakets after the update / insert statements, guess before the
$sql = "SELECT * FROM product";
statement.
(PS Try to use an programming editor (like notepad++). It shows the open/close proper tags. Really helpful.
Also a
error_reporting( E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_STRICT & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_WARNING);
ini_set("display_errors", 1);
on the first line will help, too.
