PHP

<?php
include 'conf.php';
    $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM sales");
    while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){

                  echo $row['s_number'] ;
                  echo $row['product_name'];
                  echo $row['goods_number'];
                  echo $row['sold_date'] ;

Didn't you already ask this? Use the WebClient class. Lots of examples online.

I'm not sure what you mean. The suggestion I have given is correct and will work. Are you expecting someone to do all the work for you? That won't happen.

You could also use a WebBrowser and the method GetElementByID. See here for more references.

Or as suggested above, the WebClient with DownloadString method. Find more here.
