Does anyone here have a ready made PHP file (script) which can connect to the database (by inserting, host,dabasename,user,pas) and then be used to run SQL queries. For example by putting the query in a variable and then run it. This would be the same kind of queries which can be run from phpmyadmin.

Answer 1

If you're asking how to use a MySQL database in PHP, I suggest learning about PDO:
<?php
$pdo = new pdo("mysql:host=localhost,dbname=YourDatabase","Username","Password");
?>
and submitting would go as follow:
<?php
//Unsafe
$unsafeSubmit = $pdo->query("INSERT INTO `myTable` VALUES(`id`,'".$variable1."','".$variable2."')");
//Safe
$submitInformation = $pdo->prepare("INSERT INTO `myTable` VALUES(`id`,:varOne,:varTwo)");
$submitInformation->bindValue(":varOne",$variable1);
$submitInformation->bindValue(":varTwo",$variable2);
$submitInformation->execute();
?>
With reading it with the SELECT query.
I suggest reading the documentation on PHP.NET

Answer 2

You should read up on how to do this, there are multiple ways like PDO or MySQLi
documentation mysqli on php.net
documentation pdo on php.net
These are two very well used, well supported and built in libraries in PHP which will allow you to execute queries from PHP. It's one of the first things I learned at school (deprecated mysql) so you should be fine reading up on those two.

Ok i found a quick solution using Sidney Liebrand links. Thanks
<?php
$user="username";
$password="password";
$database="database";
mysql_connect(localhost,$user,$password);
#mysql_select_db($database) or die( "Unable to select database");
$query= /* query */ "";
mysql_query($query);
mysql_close();
?>
