create table in mysql

Create a Table
The CREATE TABLE statement is used to create a database table in MySQL.
Syntax


CREATE TABLE table_name
(
column_name1 data_type,
column_name2 data_type,
column_name3 data_type,
.......
)

We must add the CREATE TABLE statement to the mysql_query() function to execute the command.
Example
The following example shows how you can create a table named "person", with three columns.
The column names will be "FirstName", "LastName" and "Age":

≤?php
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","root","");
if (!$con)
{
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
// Create database
if (mysql_query("CREATE DATABASE data",$con))
{
echo "Database created";
}
else
{
echo "Error creating database: " . mysql_error();
}
// Create table in my_db database
mysql_select_db("data", $con);
$sql = "CREATE TABLE person
(
FirstName varchar(15),
LastName varchar(15),
Age int
)";
mysql_query($sql,$con);
mysql_close($con);
?>

Important:

A database must be selected before a table can be created. The database is selected
with the mysql_select_db() function.
Note: When you create a database field of type varchar, you must specify the maximum length of the field, e.g. varchar(15).
