I am new to Joomla . So far I have accomplished the following :
i need to add own custom PHP code file and fetch data using MySQL and display in Joomla web page article
Should i do with PHP and MySQL is there any recommended plugin available
Thanks
Jockham Reports will do that.
If you want more flexibility, you could also use a plugin like Sourcerer to put PHP directly into the article, then use JDatabase. Here is a good tutorial on it: JDatabase, Using the Joomla Database

I would like to build a custom application in Laravel framework and include it in Joomla.
What I would like to do is to replace central content of Joomla with application served from content.
Joomla url: http://www.joomlasite.com/campaign-directory -> should show content from laravel url: http://www.joomlasite.com/laravel/directory/showall
I noticed component Joomi for Joomla, but Iam not sure if this component will be able to do that.
Please advice.
Thanks!
I think you mean Jumi, and yes, I think that Jumi can do what you want, but I believe there are other easier ways to achieve what you need to do. What you can do is use the iFrame Wrapper component in Joomla to "wrap" your lavarel application and display it in Joomla. Try that before using a Jumi if possible.
I have written a php page that is getting data from a database and graph it via highcharts javascript.
I would like now to be able to put that in joomla and then use the username from joomla to graph the specific data from that user.
How can I do that?
Thanks for your help,
John.
You should use an iFrame Wrapper menu item whenever you want to include a page that isn't part of your Joomla website.
I want to know how I can modify an internal link from an article so as to pass a parameter to a scrap of PHP code in the destination article.
The PHP code embedded in the destination article will use the parameter to identify a record in a database table, then retrieve some data and display it in the article. It is all working, except for passing the parameter from the source article, and retrieving it in the destination article.
I'm using Joomla 2.5.7, with the DirectPHP plugin to embed the PHP code directly into the destination article.
You might want to look at K2 for Joomla to do this. It has K2 Items which are are like Joomla Articles but have additional fields in them and you can also add extra-fields from the back end.

I'm just starting out on a component for Joomla. I can't figure out how to add an entry in the dB so I can access the component.
I looked at the dB table for components, but some of the columns seem to require some specific info.
This is NOT a finished component, but a new one I want to build.
I am using Joomla 1.7.
take care,

As Jogesh_p suggested, the easy way is to create an xml file like this
http://docs.joomla.org/Components:xml_installfile
If you are just starting out with Joomla development then take a look at the Hello World tutorial.
http://docs.joomla.org/Developing_a_Model-View-Controller_%28MVC%29_Component_for_Joomla!2.5_-_Part_01
Another option to create a Joomla component quickly is to use EasyCreator, which will create the basic parts of the extension that you can then build on.
I am learning Joomla. I have installed 1.7 and I don't understand how to store the data in the database.
I was going through this link and then I realized that this is for 1.5 as 1.7 doesn't has (prefix)_components in Joomla database.
How do I do this with 1.7? I need to store and fetch the data from the database. I can construct queries for this, but don't understand where I insert my queries.
Your best bet is to start with the Joomla Developer Documentation here
First of all you need to know the MVC architecture of joomla.Then,try to create simple component for joomla by reading the following link
http://docs.joomla.org/Developing_a_Model-View-Controller_(MVC)_Component_for_Joomla!2.5
