BetterPHP

I created a calendar and would like for it to display items from mysql in the respective date. Doesn't have to be a link or anything fancy, just plain text.

I appreciate any assistance anyone can provide. Still learning, always looking to learn something new. Thanks in advanced.

You are going to have to be more specific. More importantly, show how your calendar is made and displayed. You can create a column in the table that corresponds to a date like a date column and inside you would put maybe:

December 21, 2012

And then an info column:

Worst. Apocalypse. Ever.

Then your query would be straight forward if that's all:
[syntax=php]
<?php
$sql = "SELECT * FROM `calendar`";
?>[/syntax]
