$link = msql_connect('localhost', 'username', 'password')
or die('Could not connect : ' . msql_error($link));
msql_select_db('database', $link)
or die('Could not select database');
/* Issue SQL query */
$query = 'SELECT * FROM my_table';
$result = msql_query($query, $link) or die('Query failed : ' . msql_error());
/* Printing results in HTML */
echo "<table>\n";
while ($row = msql_fetch_array($result, MSQL_ASSOC)) {
echo "\t<tr>\n";
foreach ($row as $col_value) {
echo "\t\t<td>$col_value</td>\n";
}
echo "\t</tr>\n";
