CRUD Operations in PHP and

MySQL

Web Application
What are Create and Read operations
in CRUD (PHP)?
• CRUD is an acronym for Create, Read, Update, and Delete. As the
name suggests, these operations manipulate data in a database that
is important to any web application’s basic functionality. We can
create a PHP application coupled with a MySQL database to perform
these operations.
Creating a sample table
We will create a sample database and then create a table inside it
named data. The elements will be simple, including a name, id,
and address.

CREATE TABLE data (


id INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT,
name VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
address VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
);
Creating the landing page
We will create a landing page through a PHP file, where we will perform the CRUD
operations. We name this file index.php. The following code will create a simple
landing page that saves the name and address of a user.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>CRUD: Create, Update, Delete PHP MySQL</title>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" action="server.php" >
<div class="input-group">
<label>Name</label>
<input type="text" name="name" value="">
</div>
<div class="input-group">
<label>Address</label>
<input type="text" name="address" value="">
</div>
<div class="input-group">
<button class="btn" type="submit" name="save" >Save</button>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
Creating the config file
We will now create a configuration file config.php that will connect with the
database server.
Connection with the database and creation of records.
<?php
session_start();
$db = mysqli_connect('localhost', 'root', '', 'sample');

// initializing variables
$name = "";
$address = "";
$id = 0;
$update = false;

if (isset($_POST['save'])) {
$name = $_POST['name'];
$address = $_POST['address'];

mysqli_query($db, "INSERT INTO data (name, address) VALUES ('$name',


'$address')");
$_SESSION['message'] = "Address saved";
header('location: index.php');
}
Add this file in the index.php file by writing this statement at the top:
<?php include('server.php'); ?>
Until this point, we have connected with the database, initialized the
variables name and address, and stored them in the database. We are done with
the Create part of CRUD. Now, we can move on to reading the contents of the
database records.
Read
In order to read the data stored in the database, we will retrieve the information
from the database records and display them using the following code:

Note: You can copy-paste this code above the input form in index.php, and the contents of the database will be displayed.
<?php $results = mysqli_query($db, "SELECT * FROM data"); ?>

<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Address</th>
<th colspan="2">Action</th>
</tr>
</thead>

<?php while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($results)) { ?>


<tr>
<td><?php echo $row['name']; ?></td>
<td><?php echo $row['address']; ?></td>
<td>
<a href="index.php?edit=<?php echo $row['id']; ?>" class="edit_btn" >Edit</a>
</td>
<td>
<a href="server.php?del=<?php echo $row['id']; ?>" class="del_btn">Delete</a>
</td>
</tr>
<?php } ?>
</table>
