     <p>
     <strong>ID:</strong>    
     <?php echo $id; ?>
     </p>
     <strong>userid: </strong>    
     <input type="text" name="userid" value="<?php echo $userid; ?>" /><br/>
     <strong>name: </strong>     
     <input type="text" name="name" value="<?php echo $name; ?>" /><br/>
     <strong>phoneno: </strong>      
     <input type="text" name="phoneno" value="<?php echo $phoneno; ?>" /><br/>
     <strong>emailid: </strong> 
     <input type="text" name="emailid" value="<?php echo $emailid; ?>" /><br/>
     <strong>description: </strong>    
     <textarea name="description" value="<?php echo $description; ?>" rows="5" cols="40">    </textarea>
</form>
