    <p>I want to display the latest entry from a MySQL database with PHP. </p> <p><strong>The table (bird_playlog) looks like that:</strong> </p> <pre><code>interpret: Tiny Dancers title: Bonfire Of The Night date: 2012-06-11 14:30:58 </code></pre> <p>Screenshot: </p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/h0ZP2.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p><strong>The MySQL Connect script:</strong></p> <pre><code>&lt;?php class mw_sql{ private $host; private $user; private $pass; private $db; private $connection = null; public $connected = false; public function __construct($data){ $this-&gt;host = $data['host']; $this-&gt;user = $data['user']; $this-&gt;pass = $data['pass']; $this-&gt;db = $data['db']; } public function __destruct(){ if($this-&gt;connected) mysql_close($this-&gt;connection); } public function connect(){ $this-&gt;connection = mysql_connect($this-&gt;host, $this-&gt;user, $this-&gt;pass, true); if(!$this-&gt;connection){ echo '&lt;pre&gt;MySQL connect failed&lt;/pre&gt;'; $this-&gt;connected = false; }else{ if(@mysql_select_db($this-&gt;db, $this-&gt;connection)){ $this-&gt;connected = true; }else{ echo '&lt;pre&gt;MySQL select db failed&lt;/pre&gt;'; echo '&lt;pre&gt;'.mysql_error($this-&gt;connection).'&lt;/pre&gt;'; $this-&gt;connected = false; } } return $this-&gt;connected; } public function select($table, $fields=null, $key=null, $where=null, $sort=null, $sort_dir='ASC', $limit=null){ $cols = (is_array($fields) &amp;&amp; $fields != null) ? mysql_real_escape_string(implode(', ', $fields), $this-&gt;connection) : '*'; $where_clause = ($where != null) ?

    1. COturn off error surpression by removing your `@` symbols fro the mysql calls.

    2. COYou probably don't have any error message because you're suppressing them with the `@` sign before every mysql command. e.g. `$res = @mysql_query($query, $this->connection);` Try to remove them and see if there are any errors.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
