Learning Outcome
CLO1:
Construct the PHP program structure, file and
directory handling, database connectivity
appropriately in developing dynamic web page
that connected to MySQL database ( P4, PLO3 )

CLO3:
Display the ability to visualize the development
process web application ( P3, PLO6 )
Summary
This topic is an introduction to database server
application that deals with the advantages and
disadvantages of database server applications

Students learn how to install, configure and

create PHP database connectivity, and
manipulate data in database by implementing
the code CRUD (create, read, update & delete)
operations.
3.1 DATABASE SERVER

MySQL is an open source relational database

management system
It includes the SQL server and client programs
for accessing the server
Widely used by web application developers,
together with PHP and APACHE
It is pronounced My-es-que-el (Not My-Sequel)
WHY LEARN MY SQL
Leading open source RDBMS
Ease of use – No frills
Fast
Robust
Security
Multiple OS support
Free
Technical support
Support large database– up to 50 million rows, file size limit up to
8 Million TB
SQL SERVER
Microsoft SQL Server is a Relational Database Management System
(RDBMS) designed to run on multiple platforms
Can support thousands of concurrent users
Comes with a number of tools to help database administration and
programming tasks
SQL Server is much more robust and scalable than a desktop
database management system such as Microsoft Access. (can.t
have too many data and cannot work concurrently)
Although SQL Server can also be run as a desktop database system,
it is most commonly used as a server database system.
3.2 DATABASE
CONNECTIVITY WITH
SCRIPTING LANGUAGE
In order to make a system works well with all
components, forms, process, and database
need to be integrated
This is to let the system, know the route and
establish the connection, and which database
to use in the system because there may be a
number of database exist in that particular
folder.
 DATABASE CONNECTIVITY
1) To connect to MySQL, the PHP mysqli_connect() function requires
three arguments.
mysqli_connect() function returns TRUE if the connection succeeds,
or FALSE if the attempt fails

Syntax:

mysqli_connect("hostname", "username", "password", "databasename)

OR
mysqli_connect("hostname", "username", "password","databasename")
or die("Could not connect to MySQL");
 DATABASE CONNECTIVITY
Syntax: mysqli_connect("hostname", "username", "password", "databasename")

Hostname : name of computer in which MySQL is installed. If the MySQL

database is on the same computer as your website, you can use
localhost as the computer name. If you leave the information black (“ “).
PHP assume localhost
Username : Name of any valid MySQL account. By default username in
”root”
Password : Password specify by the username. If the MySQL account
doesn’t require any password, leave the password blank (“ “)
Databasename: name of databse in PHPMyAdmin
 DATABASE CONNECTIVITY
Syntax: mysqli_connect("hostname", "username", "password", "databasename")

You can choose between this 2 types of connection coding

1) $connect = mysqli_connect("localhost", "admin", "a1", "mydb")

2) $hostname = "localhost";
$username = "admin";
$password = "a1";
$dbase= "mydb"
$connect =
mysqli_connect($hostname,$username,$password,$dbase)
 1) Connection to database
➢Step 1 : Database
Create Database in XAMPP
Create Table in Database
Create Column and assign data type and length.
➢Step 2: Connect to database
Connection and select database
SQL command
 1) Connection to database
<?php
$hostname="localhost";
$username="root";
$password="";
$databasename="mydb";

$conn= mysqli_connect ($hostname, $username, $password,

$databasename) OR die ("Failed to connect to MYSQL");
?>
 2) Insert Data
Syntax :
INSERT INTO table_name (column1, column2, column3,...)VALUES (value1,
value2, value3,...);

Najmi’)”

TUTORIAL 1
1) Create database in XAMPP.
- database name (any name u like)
- column name (any name u like)

2) Create form file :

- Mobile Phone Form
- Mobile Name
- Mobile Model
- Storage / Capacity (radio ) :16GB, 32GB, 64GB, 128GB
- Color

3) Create PHP file to store data in DB.

- SQL : Insert into syntax
TUTORIAL 2
By referring to your answer in Tutorial 1,

1) Retrieve all the data in your database. (hint:Select)

2) Update one of your color data.

3) Delete one of your 16GB data.
