In this tutorial, we will create a Display User Details using PHP. This code can display complete detail of a user in the table when the user clicks the view detail button. The system uses the MySQLi SELECT query to show specific row data in the table that bound in a button to view the complete details in the modal dialog. This a user-friendly program. Feel free to modify and use it for your system.
We will be using PHP as a scripting language and interpreter that is used primarily on any web server, including camp, wamp, etc. It is being used to any popular websites because of the modern approach as its today.
Getting Started:
First, you have to download & install XAMPP or any local server that runs PHP scripts. Here’s the link for the XAMPP server https://www.apachefriends.org/index.html.
And, this is the link for the bootstrap that I used for the layout design https://getbootstrap.com/.
Creating Database
Open your database web server then create a database name in it db_detail, after that, click Import, then locate the database file inside the folder of the application then click ok.
Creating the database connection
Open your any kind of text editor(notepad++, etc..). Then just copy/paste the code below then name it conn.php.
<?php
$conn=mysqli_connect("localhost", "root", "", "db_detail");
if(!$conn){
die("Error: Failed to connect to database!");
}
?>Creating The Interface
This is where we will create a simple form for our application. To create the forms simply copy and write it into your text editor, then save it as index.php.

Creating PHP Query
This code contains the php query of the application. This code will store the form inputs to the MySQLi server. To do that just copy and write this block of codes inside the text editor, then save it as save.php.
<?php
require_once'conn.php';
if(ISSET($_POST['save'])){
$firstname=$_POST['firstname'];
$lastname=$_POST['lastname'];
$gender=$_POST['gender'];
$age=$_POST['age'];
$address=$_POST['address'];
$username=$_POST['username'];
$password=$_POST['password'];
mysqli_query($conn, "INSERT INTO `user` VALUES('', '$firstname', '$lastname', '$gender', '$age', '$address', '$username', '$password')") or die(mysqli_error());
header("location: index.php");
}

Hey! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this website? I’m getting fed up of WordPress because I’ve had problems with hackers and I’m looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be great if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.
