Query data from multiple database tables into form table (MYSQL,PHP) - php

Question

As I'm new to PHP, I want to know that how to put data from different database tables into one table form on the page.
My codes so far as below,
<?php
include('DBconnect.php');
mysql_query("USE onlinerecruitment");
$username =$_SESSION['user'];
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM application_data_file");
$rows = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC);
$pos_id = $rows['Position_ID'];
$resultt = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM position WHERE Position_ID = '".$pos_id."' ");
$resulttt = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM resume_data_file WHERE App_Email = '".$pos_id."' ");
?>
<TABLE border ='1'>
<table style="width:100%">
<tr>
<th>Application ID</th>
<th>Applicant E-mail</th>
<th>Position Selected</th>
<th></th>
<th></th>
<th></th>
</tr>
<?php
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC) & $rowss = mysql_fetch_array($resultt, MYSQL_ASSOC)){
echo "<TR>";
echo "<TD>".$row['App_Data_ID']."</TD>";
echo "<TD>".$row['App_Email']."</TD>";
echo "<TD>".$rowss['Position_Name']."</TD>";
echo "<TD><a href='view-app-form.php?app_mail=".$row['App_Email']."'>View Application Data</a></TD>";
echo "<TD><a href='view-resume-form.php?app_mail=".$row['App_Email']."'>View Resume Data</a></TD>";
echo "<TD><a href='view-test-score.php?app_mail=".$row['App_Email']."'>View Testing Score Data</a></TD>";
echo "</TR>";
}
?>
</table>
I will focus the part here.
<TABLE border ='1'>
<table style="width:100%">
<tr>
<th>Application ID</th>
<th>Applicant E-mail</th>
<th>Position Selected</th>
<th></th>
<th></th>
<th></th>
</tr>
<?php
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC) & $rowss = mysql_fetch_array($resultt, MYSQL_ASSOC)){
echo "<TR>";
echo "<TD>".$row['App_Data_ID']."</TD>";
echo "<TD>".$row['App_Email']."</TD>";
echo "<TD>".$rowss['Position_Name']."</TD>";
echo "<TD><a href='view-app-form.php?app_mail=".$row['App_Email']."'>View Application Data</a></TD>";
echo "<TD><a href='view-resume-form.php?app_mail=".$row['App_Email']."'>View Resume Data</a></TD>";
echo "<TD><a href='view-test-score.php?app_mail=".$row['App_Email']."'>View Testing Score Data</a></TD>";
echo "</TR>";
}
?>
</table>
But if there is any problem in the section that I didn't focused, I still appreciate your solution.
Thank you in advance.

To do this you would need to use a JOIN in the sql statement.
mysql_query("SELECT resume_data_file.App_Email, position.Position_ID FROM position INNER JOIN resume_data_file ON position.Position_ID = position.Position_ID WHERE position.Position_ID = '".$pos_id."' ");
