Fetching Data from PHP to Frontend Overview Fetching data from a PHP backend to a frontend involves setting up a PHP script to query a database and return data, which the frontend can then retrieve using JavaScript (AJAX, Fetch API, or Axios).
Steps to Implement
-
Set Up a PHP Backend Create a PHP script that connects to a database. Write a SQL query to fetch data. Convert the result into a JSON format. Send the JSON response to the frontend.
-
Fetch Data in JavaScript (Frontend) Use the fetch() API or Axios to make a GET request to the PHP script. Parse the JSON response. Display the data dynamically in the UI.
-
Handling CORS Issues (If Needed) Modify the PHP script to allow cross-origin requests using header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *");.
-
Example Use Cases Displaying user data from a database. Fetching product lists for an e-commerce site. Loading blog posts dynamically.
Technologies Used PHP (Backend) MySQL (Database) JavaScript (Fetch API/Axios)
