Populating a form with data from a database

I am trying to create an edit function. It will grab the data which
already exists from the item being edited, fill the appropriate text
fields/drop downs/etc. and then allow the user to change the values
and resubmit. I don't know how to set the value of form fields from
PHP. Is this possible? Could someone please link me an example, or
give me an idea of how this can be accomplished? Thanks,

Hi, I hope (expect!) this is straightforward - at this stage I need to know the feasibility of this. The scenario: a webserver running a database. A subset of the data (say 3 tables) needs to be loaded into an access database on a private serve someplace else (private LAN). My initial thoughts are: - generate from webserver database .csv formatted files (incrementals) - automatically ftp these to remote machine

I am populating a multiselect Listbox from a dataset, with the content of the listbox filled by one table, and the selections determined from another table. So far, I have been keeping the dataset a denormalized mirror of the database, but I'm not having much luck getting the selection logic down (I haven't found a 'hook' where I can access the listbox object as an object to set the listitem's selected property before it gets rendered).. ...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
