How can one ensure that an echo statement is executed after a database entry in PHP, especially when it is not displaying as expected?

To ensure that an echo statement is executed after a database entry in PHP, you can use the `mysqli_query()` function to execute the database query and then check if the query was successful before displaying the echo statement. This can be achieved by using an if statement to check the return value of `mysqli_query()` and then displaying the echo statement if the query was successful. 

// Connect to the database
$conn = mysqli_connect("localhost", "username", "password", "database");

// Check connection
if (!$conn) {
    die("Connection failed: " . mysqli_connect_error());
}

// Insert data into the database
$sql = "INSERT INTO table_name (column1, column2) VALUES ('value1', 'value2')";
if (mysqli_query($conn, $sql)) {
    echo "Database entry successful";
} else {
    echo "Error: " . $sql . "<br>" . mysqli_error($conn);
}

// Close the database connection
mysqli_close($conn);
