Hi iccsi,

first, look at http://www.php.net/mysql_fetch_array the example should 
help you.


Once you have the value you're looking for in a variable, you simply 
assign insert it into the value property of your input element. Ie. you 
should have something like input type=text name=a id=b value=the 
variable containing your data


Also please note that the mysql extension is deprecated; you are advised 
to switch to either PDO_MySQL or mysqli instead.

2013-09-18 Thread ITN Network
?php
$username = root;
$password = myPassword;
$hostname = localhost;

//connection to the database
$dbhandle = mysql_connect($hostname, $username, $password)  or die(Unable
to connect to MySQL);
echo Connected to MySQLbr;

//select a database to work with
$selected = mysql_select_db(iccsimd,$dbhandle)  or die(Could not select
aerver);

//execute the SQL query and return records
$result = mysql_fetch_assoc(mysql_query(SELECT invid, invdate, note,
amount FROM invheader));
?

INPUT type=text name=Mytxt id=MytextID value=?php echo
$result['note'];? /

Like Maciek mentioned, if this is a new project use PDO or MySQLi instead,
else use a PDO wrapper for MySQL functions.
