Creating the database connection

Open your any kind of text editor(notepad++, etc..). Then just copy/paste the code below then name it conn.php.

<?php
$conn

=

mysqli_connect

(

"localhost"

,

"root"

,

""

,

"db_list"

)

;
if

(

!

$conn

)

{
die

(

"Error: Failed to connect to database!"

)

;
}
?>

Creating The Interface

This is where we will create a simple form for our application. To create the forms simply copy and write it into your text editor, then save it as index.php.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/bootstrap.css" />
</head>
<body>
<nav class="navbar navbar-default">
<div class="container-fluid">
<a class="navbar-brand" href="https://sourcecodester.com">Sourcecodester</a>
<div>
</nav>
<div class="col-md-3"></div>
<div class="col-md-6 well">
<h3 class="text-primary">PHP - Populate List With MySQLi</h3>
<hr style="border-top:1px dotted #ccc;">
<div class="col-md-3">
<form method="POST" action="add.php">
<div class="form-group">
<label>Enter a movie title</label>
<input type="text" name="movie" class="form-control" required="required"/>
</div>
<center><button class="btn btn-primary" name="add">Add</button></center>
</form>
</div>
<div class="col-md-9">
<h2>MY MOVIE LIST <?php

echo

date

(

"Y"

)

?>

</h2>
<ul>
<?php
require

'conn.php'

;
$query

=

mysqli_query

(

$conn

,

"SELECT * FROM `movie`"

)

or die

(

mysqli_error

(

)

)

;
while

(

$fetch

=

mysqli_fetch_array

(

$query

)

)

{
echo

"<li>"

.

$fetch

[

'movie_title'

]

.

"</li>"

;
}
?>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

Creating the Main Function

This code contains the main function of the application. This code will display the MySQLi data as a list when the button is clicked. To make this just copy and write these block of codes below inside the text editor, then save it as add.php

<?php
require_once

'conn.php'

;
if

(

ISSET

(

$_POST

[

'add'

]

)

)

{
$movie

=

$_POST

[

'movie'

]

;
mysqli_query

(

$conn

,

"INSERT INTO `movie` VALUES('', '$movie

')"

)

or die

(

mysqli_error

(

)

)

;
header

(

'location: index.php'

)

;
}
?>
