How can PHP developers effectively utilize while loops to display data from odbc functions in a table format?

To display data from odbc functions in a table format using while loops, PHP developers can fetch rows from the result set using odbc functions and then iterate over each row using a while loop to output the data in an HTML table format. 

<?php
// Connect to the ODBC data source
$conn = odbc_connect('your_odbc_dsn', 'username', 'password');

// Prepare and execute the SQL query
$query = "SELECT * FROM your_table";
$result = odbc_exec($conn, $query);

// Output the data in a table format
echo "<table><tr><th>Column1</th><th>Column2</th></tr>";
while ($row = odbc_fetch_array($result)) {
    echo "<tr><td>{$row['Column1']}</td><td>{$row['Column2']}</td></tr>";
}
echo "</table>";

// Close the ODBC connection
odbc_close($conn);
?>
