Here’s the php code I used to output from my database. You’ll need to put in the proper connections to change everything over to work for your app.

<table class="table table-striped table-responsive-md btn-table">
<!-- -->
  <thead>
    <tr>


      <th>Username</th>
      <th>Current Game</th>
      <th>In-Game Username</th>
      <th>Looking for</th>
      <th>Reputation Score</th>
      <th>Contact via</th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
<!-- -->
  <tbody>
    <!-- -->
    <tr>

      <?php
      $servername = "localhost";
      $username = "root";
      $password = "";
      $dbname = "gamerapp";

      // Create connection
      $conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
      // Check connection
      if ($conn->connect_error) {
          die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
      }

      $sql = "SELECT username FROM userdata";
      $result = $conn->query($sql);

      if ($result->num_rows > 0) {
          // output data of each row
          while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
              echo "<tr><td> " . $row["username"]. "</td></tr>";
          }
      } else {
          echo "0 results";
      }
      $conn->close();
      ?>
  </tbody>

</table>

Here’s the code for “firststepssignup.php”

<form action="insertfirstinfo.php" method="POST" role="form">

  <div class="form-group">

    <div class="text-center">
      <h1 class="display-4 p-2" >Signup</h1>

    <!-- here is where the first and last name are collected and sent to the database -->

    <div class="form-group">

      <label for="email">Email address</label>

      <input id="email" name="email" type="email" class="form-control" id="exampleInputEmail1" aria-describedby="emailHelp" placeholder="Enter email">

</form>

Here’s the code for the action of the form in “firststepssignup.php”

YOU WILL NEED TO HAVE AN INDEX.PHP FILE THAT BRINGS THIS ALL TOGETHER AND INCLUDES BOOTSTRAP OR THIS CODE WILL LOOK HORRIBLE.

Here’s “insertfirstinfo.php”

<?php
/* Attempt MySQL server connection. Assuming you are running MySQL
server with default setting (user 'root' with no password) */
$link = mysqli_connect("localhost", "root", "", "gamerapp");

// Check connection
if($link === false){
    die("ERROR: Could not connect. " . mysqli_connect_error());
}

// Escape user inputs for security
$first_name = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_REQUEST['first_name']);
$lastname = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_REQUEST['lastname']);
$email = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_REQUEST['email']);
$password = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_REQUEST['password']);
$username = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_REQUEST['username']);


// Attempt insert query execution
$sql = "INSERT INTO userdata (first_name, lastname, email, password, username) VALUES ('$first_name', '$lastname', '$email', '$password', '$username')";
if(mysqli_query($link, $sql)){
    echo "Records added successfully.";
    header('location: index.php');
} else{
    echo "ERROR: Could not able to execute $sql. " . mysqli_error($link);
}

// Close connection
mysqli_close($link);
?>
