PHP Database Connection
<?php

Create a database
<?php

Insert data in database

PHP MySQL Login System
Create four files here for the login system
1. index.html - This file is created for the GUI view of the login page and empty field
validation.
2. style.css - This file is created for the attractive view of the login form.
3. connection.php - Connection file contains the connection code for database
connectivity.
4. authentication.php - This file validates the form data with the database which is
submitted by the user.

Fetching the data from database using php and mysql
Important points: Create a database mydb and create a table “students”
<!-- PHP code to establish connection with the localserver -->
<?php
// Username is root
$user = 'root';
$password = '';
// Database name is geeksforgeeks
$database = 'mydb';
$servername='localhost';
$mysqli = new mysqli($servername, $user,
$password, $database);
// Checking for connections
if ($mysqli->connect_error) {
die('Connect Error (' .
$mysqli->connect_errno . ') '.
$mysqli->connect_error);
}
// SQL query to select data from database
$sql = " SELECT * FROM students";
$result = $mysqli->query($sql);
$mysqli->close();
?>
<!-- HTML code to display data in tabular format -->
