<?php
//connects to database
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","root","");
if (!$con)
{
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
mysql_select_db("sally", $con);
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM people");
Print "<table border cellpadding=3>";
while($row = mysql_fetch_array( $result ))
{
Print "<tr>";
Print "<td>" . $row['ID'] . "</td>";
Print "<td>" . $row['Name'] . "</td>";
Print "<td>" . $row['Telephone'] . "</td>";
Print "<td>" . $row['Birthday'] . "</td>";
Print "<td>" . "<a href='edit_one.php?action=edit&'>Edit</a>" . "</td>";
Print "</tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
?>
</form>

}
mysql_select_db($db , $con)
or die("Couldn't open $db: ".mysql_error());
$result=mysql_query(" SELECT * FROM people WHERE id='$id'");
$num=mysql_num_rows($result);
$i=0;
while ($i < $num) {
$name=mysql_result($result,$i,"Name");
$telephone=mysql_result($result,$i,"Telephone");
$birthday=mysql_result($result,$i,"Birthday");
