Please Help..

If someone can either direct me to some howto or even provide me with
an example, I would be grateful.

I would like to know if it is possible to create an HTML form text box
that can draw information out of the database and display it in the
HTML form text box. I have purchased a few books on the integration of
Postgres and PHP but can find no such example. Maybe there is a better
way of doing this?

My theory is that if I can draw this information from the database and
have it displayed in the HTML form text box, this same information can
be UPDATED if need be from the same page. Any information or a point in

the right direction, again would be appriciated.

<input type="text" name="toke" value="<?php print $ganja; ?>" size="90"
class="formbox_four">

value="<?php print $ganja; ?>"

Once you have pulled the info from the database - you can have it appear
via the value="" in the <input>

Query results cleaned, then feed thus:
<label for=\"id\">Id Number </label>
<input type=\"text\" id=\"id\" name=\"id\" size=\"4\" value=\"$row[0]\"><br>

Next label, etc. (Value = $row[n] being the important part.)

Put in the id number, submit, the record is in the form. A place holder
is set (old_id_number) if id == existing, Modify the record.
