No records found in the database"; } else { while($arr = mysql_fetch_array($run, MYSQL_ASSOC)){ $table .= "\t\t<tr>\n"; foreach ($arr as $val_col) { $table .= "\t\t\t".'<td>'.$val_col.'</td>'."\n"; } $table .= "\t\t</tr>\n"; } $table .= "</table>"; return $table; } mysql_free_result($run); } return "There was an error while fetching the records.
