Build a report in php

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I have to build some reports based on mysql queries. Nothing fancy, just text, columns...

 

There are a lot of paid softwares but I can't (and don't want to) spend any $$ right now...

 

So, considering that I want very simple reports almost like a table with heading and subtotals, I should write it myself. But I don't know how (still...).

 

I'm looking for tips, tutorials, ebooks... anything that explains how to make a very simply report.

 

Regards,

Pedro.

In what way do you have to build a report? Do you mean you have to get results from a database and then display them nicely on a page?

 

That will be very simple. Most of it will be HTML, with a bit of the php for getting the data.

 

Give this site a go:

Also use w3schools.com and look at the server scripting.
