Triggering a mysql query on page load

[G-MAN]

Hello,

I need to trigger a mySQL select query when the page loads. Is there
a way I can do this with PHP, javascript, or some other language?

Thanks,
KrisG.

Ehrm... What about putting it at the top of your script?

Automatically, without the user submitting a form?

JavaScript is the only thing I can think of that might permit something
"onload". But that would at best give you a fragile solution. What are
you trying to do?
