Add profile avatar to the leaderboard - php

Question

I recently made a leaderboard and I would like to make some changes.
This is the code :
<table>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td>Name</td>
<td>Likes</td>
</tr>
<?php
$con=mysqli_connect("localhost", "user", "pass", "database");
$sql = ("SELECT username, likes FROM users ORDER BY likes DESC LIMIT 5");
$result = mysqli_query($con, $sql);
$rank = 1;
if (mysqli_num_rows($result)) {
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
echo "<tr>
<td>{$rank}</td>
<td>{$row['username']}</td>
<td>{$row['likes']}</td>
</tr>";
$rank++;
}
}
?>
</table>
Now, what I would like to do is add instead of 'username' the avatar of each user with 'alt' for username. E.g :
<img src="<?php echo $example->avater;?>" alt="<?php echo $example->username;?>" />
This is the location of avatar in mysql !
I also have a css code created for the avatar to appear in a round circle.That means we will use
<div class="pro_usrs_container">
I tried but I don't understand how to make the codes so that I can integrate them in <td> instead of <td> $ row ['username'] </td>
Thank you very much !

Answer 1

Select avater in your Query and use it in your table.
<table>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td>Name</td>
<td>Likes</td>
</tr>
<?php
$con=mysqli_connect("localhost", "user", "pass", "database");
$sql = ("SELECT username, avater, likes FROM users ORDER BY likes DESC LIMIT 5");
$result = mysqli_query($con, $sql);
$rank = 1;
if (mysqli_num_rows($result)) :
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) : ?>
<tr>
<td><?php echo $rank; ?></td>
<td><img src="<?php echo $row['avater'];?>" alt="<?php echo $row['avater'];?>" /></td>
<td><?php echo $row['likes']; ?></td>
</tr>
<?php $rank++;
endwhile;
endif;
?>
</table>

Based on the requirement above:
<table>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td>Name</td>
<td>Likes</td>
</tr>
<?php
$con=mysqli_connect("localhost", "user", "pass", "database");
$sql = ("SELECT avater, username, likes FROM users ORDER BY likes DESC LIMIT 5");
$result = mysqli_query($con, $sql);
$rank = 1;
if (mysqli_num_rows($result)) {
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
echo "<tr>
<td>{$rank}</td>
<td><img src="{$row['avater']}" alt="{$row['username']}" /></td>
<td>{$row['likes']}</td>
</tr>";
$rank++;
}
}
?>
