PHP MySQL Tutorial

Let's try to do a query of our database for people who have cats for a pet. We will do this by adding a WHERE clause to set pet equal to Cat.

<?php
// Connects to your Database
mysql_connect("your.hostaddress.com", "username", "password") or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("Database_Name") or die(mysql_error());
$data = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM friends WHERE pet='Cat'")
or die(mysql_error());
Print "<table border cellpadding=3>";
while($info = mysql_fetch_array( $data ))
{
Print "<tr>";
Print "<th>Name:</th> <td>".$info['name'] . "</td> ";
Print "<th>Color:</th> <td>".$info['fav_color'] . "</td> ";
Print "<th>Food:</th> <td>".$info['fav_food'] . "</td> ";
Print "<th>Pet:</th> <td>".$info['pet'] . " </td></tr>";
}
Print "</table>";
?>
