Just a simple question, i've been searching around and for some reason i cannot find an answer to this. after creating a database/table in Phpmyadmin using xampp, what command do i need to put into my webpage (PHP) to show the table I made? I know the first step involves connecting to the database and i think i've done that properly. This is the code i found from somewhere about connecting (w3 tutorials I believe) $con = mysql_connect("localhost","xxxxxx,""); if (!$con) { die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); }
