Retrieving Data
Now that some data has been entered into the cats table, following example shows how you can check that it was correctly inserted.
<?php
require_once 'login.php';
$db_server = mysql_connect($db_hostname, $db_username, $db_password);
if (!$db_server) die("Unable to connect to MySQL: " . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db($db_database)
or die("Unable to select database: " . mysql_error());
$query = "SELECT * FROM cats";
$result = mysql_query($query);
if (!$result) die ("Database access failed: " . mysql_error());
$rows = mysql_num_rows($result);
echo "<table><tr> <th>Id</th> <th>Family</th>
<th>Name</th><th>Age</th></tr>";
for ($j = 0 ; $j < $rows ; ++$j)
{
$row = mysql_fetch_row($result);
echo "<tr>";
for ($k = 0 ; $k < 4 ; ++$k) echo "<td>$row[$k]</td>";
echo "</tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
?>
