How can PHP be used to dynamically create PHP files and navigation menu entries based on database entries?

To dynamically create PHP files and navigation menu entries based on database entries, you can use PHP to query the database for the necessary information and then generate the files and menu entries accordingly. This can be achieved by looping through the database results and using file handling functions to create PHP files with the desired content. Additionally, you can generate navigation menu entries by dynamically outputting HTML code based on the database entries. 

<?php
// Connect to the database
$connection = mysqli_connect('localhost', 'username', 'password', 'database');

// Query the database for necessary information
$query = "SELECT * FROM pages";
$result = mysqli_query($connection, $query);

// Loop through the database results
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
    // Create a PHP file with the desired content
    $fileContent = "<?php echo '{$row['content']}'; ?>";
    file_put_contents("{$row['filename']}.php", $fileContent);

    // Generate navigation menu entries
    echo "<li><a href='{$row['filename']}.php'>{$row['title']}</a></li>";
}

// Close the database connection
mysqli_close($connection);
?>
