    You can use php to connect to the mysql server. From there you would use the mysql_connect or mysqli_connect command to connect to the server. After connecting run a query like "SELECT * FROM 'tbl_name'" and then do a mysql_fetch_assoc to grab the information from the mysql server. Then echo it.

    If you wanted to display the whole table, then you would have to make a php loop. Google "display table php"

    Edit: If you do not understand any of the commands I just said, you can use tizag or w3schools to learn them. Have fun :)
