http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_mysql_select.asp Check this. Instead of echoing $row['FirstName'] and $row['LastName'] in the example, assign it to a variable and use it as the 'value' of the textbox.
<input type="text" name="firstname" value="<?php echo $firstname; ?>"> Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.

textbox inside <?php tags ? Yep, you have to echo it. But this way.
echo "<input type=\"text\" name=\"name\" value=\"$firstname\">"; Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.
