Good day! I am fairly new in PHP and I am trying to develop a website that can retrieve and display stored information from the database. The catch is, the information that will be retrieve will be based on the selected value from the list box (the list box you can create in html).
I have one list box that contains all the names of the users and would like to display all the related information for that user on a specific table in my database.
To be completely honest, I have no idea how to do this. I can retrieve all the values from a specific table in my database and that's all I know.
Hoping someone would be patient enough to teach me how to do this or guide me if this is even possible in PHP.
Thank you in advance.
You will need to read on doing database operations using PHP with PDO.
Once you've done that, the rest will be pretty easy, you will have to learn how to work with forms with PHP,
which you can do here.

Please forgive me if this has been asked and answered before, but I couldn't find it in the search.
As stated in the title, I have a form built in HTML. I need the user inputted data to be displayed in an HTML table. I know the easiest way to accomplish this is probably to do so using SQL to store and then retrieve the data and PHP to output it in the table itself. For the life of me I cannot get this to actually work. Google is absolutely my friend but literally nothing I've tried actually works. Examples would be wonderful and I seriously appreciate the help! Thanks!

Basically, you need a web server, either locally or via a hosting provider with access to a database.
Your database needs to have a table, which contains records.
You need to use PHP to connect to the database, retrieve the records and then output them as a HTML table.

I'm just a beginner of PHP and I am working for making a multiple-choice type question paper. And I want to stores answers of these question in the database and also want to fetch result from database. And also I want to show result of attempt in percentage e.g. Your result is 40%.
I'm running PHP on WAMP server.
Welcome to Stack Overflow, we are here to help you correct your bugs and help you if you get stuck in coding. We are not freelancers, so please do not ask such questions which literally mean "do my homework!".
But hey, let me give you a basic info on how you should start up. First create a php page with form which contains all questions at once or like a wizard (depends on your needs). Later, you need to create a database, with two tables (maybe more) which are questions and answers. These shouldn't contains huge amounts of html chunks, but should be straight questions and answers with a foreign key to link them. Then use php to generate random questions and answers and use normal post/get (usually not user friendly) or AJAX (better performance).
If you get stuck in any of the steps above, then come back to StackOverflow and share your query with invalid codes and similar. Hoping this was helpful :)

Basically you need to get the data, manipulate it and send it to the HTML page. Once you get the data in HTML you can present it any kind of look-n-feel as per your needs.
You can not expect exact answers for such questions - so I suggest you to be more specific with QUESTION and make sure that you also share the source code that you tried so far.

First of all I must say that I am a complete rookie at web development(2 months working on). So forgive me about any "stupid" comments or questions.
I have a table which holds date stored in MySQL database. I use a form to send these data to the table.
My question is:
"Can I create a hyperlink on each ID of the table so when I click on it, it will display the data of the record BUT on the same page?"
All I could do was to display the table in another page.
First when someone read "responsive table" normally we think on responsive design, maybe the correct title would be data managament from tables.
To answer your question, I would say yes, you can create a hyperlink on each ID display the data, this hyperlink would make another query on the database, the way you want to do i would use AJAX that's really complicated at start, so I recommend you to search some tutorials.

I am trying to create a site with a tiny CMS, the problem is that there is only php installed on the server.
The site will mainly consit of two pages the user page and admin page. On the user page there is to be a bunch of checkboxes which when checked will do some math(not the problem I need solved). On the admin page you need to be able to add the checkboxes and assing them their values.
My approach was to read and write to a XML file that contains the data instead of a database. I have run into a lot of problems trying to accomplish this, and I am looking for some good ideas for how it can be done, or alternatives.
Thanks in advance.
You can use sqlite as database engine. This way you also create a portable version of your application and by using PDO you could always switch to another database engine later on.
