Basics - How to access database?

[philosophology]

All I know:
using php and mysql
database name: db_a
table in db_a: tb_a
fields in tb_a: ID, FName, SName

All I want to learn right now is to make a table on an html page and query the tb_a and put the results in that table. The table should be something like this:

ID | FName | SName
01 | A | B
02 | C | D

I do know HTML pretty good and know the basics of php. I just need some guidance in using php to access a database and query for the data that I need.

Thanx in advance.
