This week you have learnt to retrieve data from an existing database/table. But let's work with YOUR database:
- Register for a Mysql database if you haven't already done so.
- Using the phpMyAdmin administration page, create a simple table (people, products, films, bands, etc.) For this example I have created a Films table:
- Still using the phpMyAdmin administration page, insert some data in your table, for example:
- Finally, create a single webpage that connects to your database, retreive the film names from the table above, and displays them in an unordered list (<UL>):
- Alien
- Aliens
- Alien 3
- Predator
- Seven
- Sin City
Important: make sure that your page's HTML is compliant!
- Want to try something a little more difficult? Try displaying the name and duration of all films in a 2-column HTML table, as follow:
| Alien | 110 mins |
| Aliens | 130 mins |
| Alien 3 | 100 mins |
| Predator | 100 mins |
| Seven | 100 mins |
| Sin City | 100 mins |
Important: you should commit your mini-task code to your GitLab project. (more info here)

All done? Let's move on!
