Re: Return values from a select

[Peter Brawley]

1. Why hide error messages from yourself? Always include error traps in PHP database function calls, eg ...

$result = $conn->query($sql) or exit( mysqli_error($conn) );

2. After running the query, you need to fetch the result row(s). Look up mysqli_fetch.

3. $_POST[] makes no sense with the other code you show. It's for capturing values posted from one PHP page to another. Read about $_POST[].

Let's see the actual error messages you get, and the result of ...

Show Create Table customer;
