updating table data using php:

The PHP include the update mysql function query () that is used to update the table 'mytable' and set a new value 'Amit' for empid '2' as specified in Where Clause. The mysql_fetch_array function ( ) is used to return the first row records. Each call to this function fetches the next row values from table 'mytable'. The While loop iterate the records value from recordset in the table 'mytable'. The echo print the required output records from table 'mytable'.

<?php
$database="girish";
$user="root";
$password="root";
$host="192.168.10.126";
$link= mysql_connect($host,$user,$password) or die("Could not connect: ".mysql_error());
mysql_select_db($database,$link) or die("Error in selecting the database:".mysql_error());
$sql="update mytable set empname=\"Amit\" where empid=2";
mysql_query($sql,$link) or exit("Sql Error".mysql_error());

$sql="select * from mytable";
$sql_result=mysql_query($sql,$link) or exit("Sql Error".mysql_error());

$sql_num=mysql_num_rows($sql_result);
echo "<table border=\"1\" bgcolor=\"#CCCCFF\" >";
echo "<tr><td><b>Empid</b></td><td><b>Empname</b></td><td><b>Salary</b></td>" ;
while($sql_row=mysql_fetch_array($sql_result))
{
$Empid=$sql_row["Empid"];
$Empname=$sql_row["Empname"];
$Salary=$sql_row["Salary"];
