What potential issue is the user facing when trying to output an MSSQL table using PHP?

The potential issue the user may face when trying to output an MSSQL table using PHP is not having the necessary drivers or extensions installed. To solve this issue, the user needs to ensure that the PHP SQLSRV driver is installed and enabled in their PHP configuration. 

<?php
// Connect to MSSQL database
$serverName = "localhost";
$connectionOptions = array(
    "Database" => "YourDatabase",
    "Uid" => "YourUsername",
    "PWD" => "YourPassword"
);
$conn = sqlsrv_connect($serverName, $connectionOptions);

// Check connection
if (!$conn) {
    die("Connection failed: " . print_r(sqlsrv_errors(), true));
}

// Query data from MSSQL table
$sql = "SELECT * FROM YourTable";
$stmt = sqlsrv_query($conn, $sql);

// Output data from table
while ($row = sqlsrv_fetch_array($stmt, SQLSRV_FETCH_ASSOC)) {
    echo "Column1: " . $row['Column1'] . "<br>";
    echo "Column2: " . $row['Column2'] . "<br>";
    // Add more columns as needed
}

// Close connection
sqlsrv_free_stmt($stmt);
sqlsrv_close($conn);
?>
