    <p>I am trying to retrieve information from my database depending on the ID a user types into my URL.</p> <p>For example: If USER A went to www.exampleurl.com/index.php?id=1 it would echo out the user's information which has an ID of 1. Same thing if the id was 2, 3, etc. Users are entering their information via a form in a different file called submit.php.</p> <p>Here is my code to retrieve data depending on ID :</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php $id = $_GET['id']; //Variables for connecting to your database. $hostname = ""; $username = ""; $dbname = ""; $password = ""; $usertable = ""; //Connecting to your database $con = mysql_connect($hostname, $username, $password) OR DIE ("Unable to connect to database! Please try again later."); mysql_select_db($dbname, $con); $query = "SELECT * FROM $usertable WHERE id = $id LIMIT 1"; $result = mysql_query($query, $con); echo "Hello, " . $result['name']; ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>Any ideas on if my SELECT request is wrong? </p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong></p> <p>Here is my code for showing the data altogether in a table. This works fine.</p> <pre><code> &lt;?php //Variables for connecting to your database. $hostname = ""; $username = ""; $dbname = ""; $password = "!"; $usertable = ""; //Connecting to your database $con = mysql_connect($hostname, $username, $password) OR DIE ("Unable to connect to database! Please try again later."); mysql_select_db($dbname, $con); //Fetching from your database table. $query = "SELECT * FROM $usertable"; $result = mysql_query($query, $con); echo "&lt;table border=1&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;th&gt; ID &lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt; Name &lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt; Age &lt;/th&gt; &lt;/tr&gt;"; while($record = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo "&lt;tr&gt;"; echo "&lt;td&gt;" . $record['id'] . "&lt;/td&gt;"; echo "&lt;td&gt;" . $record['name'] . "&lt;/td&gt;"; echo "&lt;td&gt;" . $record['age'] . "&lt;/td&gt;"; echo "&lt;/tr&gt;"; } echo "&lt;/table&gt;"; ?&gt; </code></pre>

    1. COThis looks like it's for a test or example project so I won't harp on security, but what is the error you are encountering?

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).
