How have you "created" the tables without using mysql?
You need to have mysql / php running on the server, then you need to write bits of php to access the database and generate the appropriate html output. You could look for an online php/database tutorial (sorry, no specific recommendations; I read a not-terribly-good book). Then the php manual http://php.net is generally very easy to use, and typically more helpful than the mysql documentation.
Otherwise your question is rather vague and general...

I recommend you read through the articles "PHP 101: PHP For the Absolute Beginner" at http://devzone.zend.com/node/view/id/627.
