How can PHP developers ensure that dynamic content, like database-driven data, is properly displayed when printing a webpage?

When printing a webpage with dynamic content, PHP developers can ensure that database-driven data is properly displayed by using PHP to fetch the data from the database and then echoing it within the HTML structure of the webpage. This allows the dynamic data to be seamlessly integrated into the webpage when it is rendered in the browser. 

<?php
// Connect to database
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
$dbname = "myDB";

$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);

// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
    die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}

// Fetch data from database
$sql = "SELECT * FROM myTable";
$result = $conn->query($sql);

// Display data on webpage
if ($result->num_rows > 0) {
    while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
        echo "<div>" . $row["column1"] . "</div>";
        echo "<div>" . $row["column2"] . "</div>";
    }
} else {
    echo "0 results";
}

$conn->close();
?>
