How can PHP be used to display different images for the newest data records in MySQL?

To display different images for the newest data records in MySQL using PHP, you can retrieve the latest records from the database, determine which image corresponds to each record, and then display the images accordingly on the webpage. 

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

// Retrieve the newest data records from MySQL
$query = "SELECT * FROM table ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 5";
$result = mysqli_query($connection, $query);

// Define an array mapping record IDs to image URLs
$imageMap = [
    1 => "image1.jpg",
    2 => "image2.jpg",
    3 => "image3.jpg",
    4 => "image4.jpg",
    5 => "image5.jpg"
];

// Display images for the newest data records
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
    $recordID = $row['id'];
    $imageURL = $imageMap[$recordID];
    echo "<img src='$imageURL' alt='Record $recordID'>";
}

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