White mildewy spots on leaves of tomato plant

I have a tomato plant growing in a container. It was doing beautifully and then it started to develop these white powdery spots on the lower leaves gradually spreading upwards.These leaves have now turned yellow and brown and wilted. What could this be and how could I save my plant.

Thank you in advance.

My neighbor got powdery mildew on her tomatoes. I'd never seen it before on tomatoes, didn't know they could get it. Here's a picture of what it looks like:
