How To Retrieve Data From a SQL Server Table Into An HTML Page Using PHP
This blog post describes various methods for retrieving data from a Microsoft SQL Server and displaying it on an HTML page. One method is to use a server-side scripting language such as PHP or Node.js to connect to the SQL Server, query the data, and generate the HTML dynamically. Another approach is to use an ORM (Object-relational mapping) like Doctrine to interact with the database. A third option is to use a client-side javascript framework like AngularJS or ReactJS to connect to a web API that retrieves the data from the SQL Server. Examples are provided for creating a new database and table using SQL, PHP, and MySQLi. It is important to note that data should be properly sanitized to prevent SQL injection attacks and to backup data before running any such scripts to avoid data loss.
