Use the $_GET
method to pass the url. At the top of the php file you can access the information posted in the url using the global $_GET['id']
. You can check if it is set, and depending on whether or not it is, show information regarding that id from the database.
It might look something like this:
if (isset($_GET["id"])) {
$id = $_GET["id"];
$query = "SELECT * table WHERE id = {$id} LIMIT 1;";
$result = mysqli_query($connection, $query);
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)){
echo $row["id"];
echo $row["name"];
echo $row["someOtherAttribute"];
}
}
Make sure you have your connection and your database set up and whatnot, but thats how you would accomplish this.

Check out this [page](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/71328/what-are-the-best-practices-for-avoiding-xss-attacks-in-a-php-site). Incorporate these practices with the above code and you should be alright. For the purpose of simplicity, I left out some XSS and sql injection prevention techniques. – Ian Aug 21 '14 at 18:18

Try using `mysqli_real_escape_string`. Docs found [here](http://www.w3schools.com/php/func_mysqli_real_escape_string.asp). And maybe separate it so the line `$id = $_GET["id"];` is `$id = mysqli_real_escape_string($_GET['id']);` and then using the {$id} syntax – Ian Aug 21 '14 at 18:36
