How can PHP developers improve their skills and understanding of PHP basics to effectively implement features like online registration lists?

To improve their skills and understanding of PHP basics for implementing features like online registration lists, PHP developers can practice by building small projects, reading PHP documentation, and participating in online PHP communities to learn from others. They can also explore advanced PHP concepts such as object-oriented programming and database interactions to enhance their capabilities.

<?php
// Example code snippet for implementing an online registration list feature

// Connect to database
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
$dbname = "registration";

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

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

// Query to retrieve registration list
$sql = "SELECT * FROM registrations";
$result = $conn->query($sql);

// Display registration list
if ($result->num_rows > 0) {
    while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
        echo "Name: " . $row["name"]. " - Email: " . $row["email"]. "<br>";
    }
} else {
    echo "0 results";
}

$conn->close();
?>
