I have the following code, and the tutorial I followed says that the table should show up, but it doesn't. All that shows up is the text inside the <h1> and <h4> tags, and the external CSS file is also not taking effect. The code I have is as follows:

<?php
include_once('connection.php');
$query="select * from myanimelist";
$result=mysql_query($query);
?>

<!DOCTYPE html> 
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles-2.css">
</head>
<body>
<h1> Callum Stewart's Amazing Website. </h1>
<h4> The Home of Entertainment. </h4>

<table align="center" border="1px" style="width: 300px" color="black">
    <tr>
    <th>Anime Database</th>
    </tr>
    <tr>
    <th>Title</th>
    <th>MediaType</th>
    <th>Rating</th>
    <th>NumOfEpisodes</th>
    <th>NumOfVolumes</th>
    </tr>
</table>
</body> 
</html>

Just caught the `` thing and fixed the quotes, but still doesn't work. – user83024 Mar 29 '18 at 20:41
Do you mean there is not data placed in the table after the headings? – RiggsFolly Mar 29 '18 at 20:46
Check your server error logs for potential errors, and maybe enable [PHP error reporting](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1053424/how-do-i-get-php-errors-to-display) for your local development environment – chrki Mar 29 '18 at 20:47
@RiggsFolly The only data that appears on the page is the two headings. That's it. No table. – user83024 Mar 29 '18 at 20:53
Do you know what version of PHP you are using on your server – RiggsFolly Mar 29 '18 at 21:04
where is your
tag?

@briskovich Why does OP need a form when he is only showing data – RiggsFolly Mar 29 '18 at 21:07
@RiggsFolly I don't. How do I find that information? – user83024 Mar 29 '18 at 21:11
Are you running on a loca (yourown) server of a hosted server – RiggsFolly Mar 29 '18 at 21:12
@RiggsFolly - I just always include a form tag in every .php page I build. I have a blank template that I use over and over. I got OP's page to load up just fine. Of course it won't display anything as written now but it works. – briskovich Mar 29 '18 at 21:12
Ditto, I get a table as well, but I removed the php tags and code – RiggsFolly Mar 29 '18 at 21:14
I'm running on localhost, yes. – user83024 Mar 29 '18 at 21:18
Make a script containing just `` – RiggsFolly Mar 29 '18 at 21:38
Did you find out the PHP version you are using yet? – RiggsFolly Mar 29 '18 at 22:01
Are you using windows or *nix – RiggsFolly Mar 29 '18 at 22:01
I am using Windows, and PHP version 7.2.1. – user83024 Mar 29 '18 at 22:05
The `mysql_` API was removed in PHP7 gone forever. You will have to start using the `PDO` or `mysqli_` API's to access MySQL databases now – RiggsFolly Mar 29 '18 at 22:26
I am using `mysqli_` but nothing is changing. – user83024 Mar 29 '18 at 22:31
