What do you mean by "returning a database"... or a "table"? This is not how SQL works.
SELECT * FROM tableName
would do something like a table, but better don't do it...

Solution 1

Try a stored procedure rather than a function.
A sample stored procedure with parameter -

SQL

DELIMITER $$

DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS MyFirstSP$$
CREATE PROCEDURE MyFirstSP(IN Id INT)
BEGIN
 SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE pk_id=Id;
END$$

You can follow this link to learn how to create a simple stored procedure.

Hope, it helps :)
