How to Navigate and Display Database Records Using PHP
In this PHP tutorial, we will see how to to retrieve product information from a database and display it within an HTML form.
Users can navigate through the products by using navigation buttons, and the form fields will dynamically update to show the details of the selected product.
Project Source Code:
<?php
// Connect to the database
require_once "db_connect.php";
// Define the SQL query to select all products from the "product" table
$query = "SELECT * FROM `product`";
// Prepare the SQL statement
$stmt = $conn -> prepare($query);
// Execute the SQL statement
$stmt->execute();
// Fetch all the results from the statement and store them in an array
$results = $stmt->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
// Initialize an empty array to store the products
$products = array();
foreach( $results as $row ){
$product = array("id"=>$row["id"],
"name"=>$row["name"],
"price"=>$row["price"],
"image"=>$row["image"]
);
// Add the product array to the products array
array_push($products, $product);
}
?>

Code Explanation:
PHP Section: This PHP code connects to a database using "db_connect.php," defines and executes an SQL query to select all products from a "product" table, fetches and stores the results in an array, and constructs an array of product information.
HTML/JavaScript Section: This code generates an HTML form with fields for product information.
It includes navigation buttons (First, Previous, Next, Last) to move between products and applies CSS styles.
JavaScript manages button clicks, updates form fields with product data, and keeps track of the current product.
listeners are added for button interaction, and the form is initialized through the updateForm function.
