Use google search, you'll get lots of articles that give a detailed explanation.

Something like this.

The query:

$sel=mysql_query("select thevalue from mysqldb" );
$row=mysql_fetch_array($sel);
$value=$row['thevalue'];

Your text field html code :

<input name="whatever" type="text" id="whatever" value="<?php echo $value;?>" />
