Links for Displaying Data

• PHP MySQL Select - Info on the SELECT statement from W3Schools.com. I copied their example to display my to-do list.
• PHP: mysql_query - All about the mysql_query function from the PHP manual.
• PHP: mysql_fetch_array - All about the mysql_fetch_array function from the PHP manual.

By the way, I should mention that my to-do list is open to all kinds of security threats. That doesn’t matter right now, though, since I’m the only one using my site.
