How do I display all field names from a MySQL table to a web page when I only know the table name?
Use the information_schema meta-DB:
SELECT COLUMN_NAME
FROM information_schema.TABLES
WHERE (TABLE_SCHEMA='Yourdb') AND (TABLE_NAME = 'Yourtablename')
In addition to #MarcB's suggestion, you can also do:
SHOW COLUMNS FROM table

Trying to query db. I need to show all fields, but need to exclude one name that is in the db.
Example:
The db contains column 'marketer' when I try to query it I don't want marketer 'Tommy' but all the others. I have tried tried where clause with all the names and not working.
This is the query you're looking for
SELECT * FROM <table_name> WHERE marketer<>'Tommy';
use the 'where' to add your conditions
SELECT * FROM your_table WHERE marketer!='Tommy'
For your Reference

Using Bootstrap, PHP and MySQL, how do I populate a dropdown selection based on the contents of a mysql table.
For example I have a table user.
tblUsers
- id
- name
- email
How would a simple example of the PHP and HTML code look?
<?PHP
$yourquery = (select id, name from tblUsers);
echo '<select>';
foreach($yourquery as $qry){
echo '<option value="'.$qry->id.'">'.$qry->name.'</option>';
}
echo '</select>';
?>

I have a query that is returning a different amount of user_id's each time it's run (based on the number of subscribers).
What I need to do is insert each of these user_id results into separate rows within a table along with a simple message of "new alert" in a separate column.
How could I possibly go about doing this? Would a for each loop work in this situation?
Try this:
INSERT INTO alert_table SELECT user_id, 'new alert' FROM ... WHERE ...
Use your own query, just prepend it with the INSERT INTO alert_table clause.

I have a mysql database where there is 3 tables 'groupstage', 'quarterfinal,' semifinal. All of these table have a column named 'Date'. Now I want to write a query from where I can get all the fields from those tables with a specific date? what should i write it in php?
To get what you want, you can write a query which join the 3 tables like :
SELECT *
FROM groupstage, quarterfinal, semifinal
WHERE groupstage.date = quarterfinal.date AND quarterfinal.date = semifinal.date
AND date = "YOUR DATE"
In php you should just create a var $query = "My query above"
