Loading data from DB into table

Hello, I’ve been sitting trying to load data from a database into a table, it’s working but I just think the code is cluttering… Is there a shorter way to do it?

My code is following:


<?php
include('Dataconnection.php');

$connect = mysql_connect($host,$username,$password) or die('<p class="error">Unable to connect to the database server at this time.</p>');

mysql_select_db($database,$connect) or die('<p class="error">Unable to connect to the database at this time.</p>');

$query = "SELECT MemberID, FirstName, MiddleName, LastName FROM Golf_Member;";

$result = @mysql_query("$query") or die('<p class="error">There was an unexpected error grabbing shouts from the database.</p>');
?>
<html>
<body>
<table width="400" border="1">
	<tr>
	    <th>Member ID</th>
	    <th>First Name</th>
	    <th>Middle Name</th>
	    <th>Last Name</th>
	</tr>
	<?

while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
        
            $MemberID = stripslashes($row['MemberID']);
            $FirstName = stripslashes($row['FirstName']);
            $MiddleName = stripslashes($row['MiddleName']);
           	$LastName = stripslashes($row['LastName']);
            
            $repeater = '<td>'.$MemberID.'</td><td>'.$FirstName.'</td><td>'.$MiddleName.'</td><td>'.$LastName.'</td>';
            
            echo('<tr>'.$repeater.'</tr>');
}
?>
</table>
</body>
</html>

Use ORM :slight_smile:

can you maybe specify it a little more? - I’m not the most pro guy.
