Displaying Tables

[run_GMoney]

Is there a way to display a table in HTML? I know in MySQL you can type DESCRIBE tablename and it'll show up. Is there a way to do it so it displays in HTML? Something maybe like:

$desctable = mysql_query("DESCRIBE tablename");

echo $desctable;

I've tried it but it didn't give me any output? Is it possible to do that?

$sql = "DESCRIBE tablename";
$res = mysql_query($sql)
	or die('MySQL error: '.mysql_error().'<br>Query: '.$sql);

echo '<table>';

while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($res)) {
echo "<tr>
	<td>$row[0]</td>
	<td>$row[1]</td>
	<td>$row[2]</td>
	<td>$row[3]</td>
	<td>$row[4]</td>
	<td>$row[5]</td>
	</tr>";
}

echo '</table>';
