Hello. I have tried searching for resource on the web but was out of luck. All I want is a simple web form so that I can input names addresses and phone numbers and have it stored in a MySQL database. After inputting, there it should generate the contents on the same page. Seems simple enough but I can't find anything for it. Any thoughts? Thanks and many thanks!

Buy a book (PHP & MySQL - Visual Quick Start Guide) or follow the tutorial here.

Take an input from an html form.
$email=$_POST[emailf];

Save this to a MySQL database
Connect to your database.
Use the SQL statement 'INSERT'

Show results/contents
Connect to your database.
Use the SQL statement 'WHERE' and a while loop to list the contents.
Put results in variables
Then echo the variables.
