<?php

$labels = array( "user_name" => "User Name", "create_date" => "Creation Date", "password" => "Password",

$submit = "Press any key";
include("dbstuff.inc");
$cxn = mysqli_connect($host,$user,$passwd,$databname);
if (!cxn) {
printf("Can't connect to localhost. Errorcode: %dn", mysqli_connect_errno ());
}
else { echo "connection successful !";
}
/* or die ("could not connect to server");*/
$query = "SELECT * FROM customer ";
$result = mysqli_query ($cxn,$query) or die ("could not execute query");
/*$customer = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result);*/

<html>
<head><title>Customer Record</title>
<style type='text/css'>

/*div {background-color:#b0c4de}*/
body {color:blue}
body {background-color:#b0c4de}

<!--
#form {margin: 1.5em 0 0 0;

<h3> Customer Details</h3>

<?php
/* Loop that displays the form fields */
/* print_r ($customer);*/


while ($customer = mysqli_fetch_array($result, MYSQLI_ASSOC)) {

echo "<form action = '$_SERVER[PHP_SELF]' method = 'POST'>
<div id='form'>";

foreach($labels as $field => $label)
{
echo "<div id='field'><label for='$field'>$label</label>

<input id='$field' name='$field' type='text'
size='50%' maxlength='65' value = {$customer[$field]} />

</div>n";

} /* foreach*/
echo "<input style='margin-left: 33%' type='submit' value='$submit' />n";

} /*while*/
/*echo "</div>n";*/


/* free result set */
mysqli_free_result($result);
/* close connection */
mysqli_close($cxn);
