PHP loop through database and limit number of entries Posted by gilbertsavier on 17 Aug 2009 at 3:12 AM
Hi,
Going to try to explain this as best I can. I have a bunch of stuff in a database and I need to display this info within a table. This isn't a problem at all but, I need it to only display 3 td tags per line and then move on to the row.

so i need it to do :

code:

<table>
<tr>
<td>My First Row</td>
<td>My First Row 2</td>
<td>My First Row 3</td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td>My Second Row</td>
<td>My Second Row 2</td>
<td>My Second Row 3</td>
</tr>
</table>



and continue to do this through every entry in the database table.

so I have something like this that will display the info:

code:

for ($i = 1; $i <= $num; $i++){

$chairArray = mysql_fetch_array($chairResult);
$chairName = $chairArray['name'];
$chairDescription = $chairArray['description'];
$chairImage = $chairArray['image'];

echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>";
echo "<img src=\"images/catalog/ottomans/thumbs/$chairImage\" width=\"157\" height=\"147\" />";
echo "<br />";
echo $chairName;
echo "</td>";
echo "</tr>";


}

Thanks & regards
Lokananth

Simpply introduce new <td> tags like;

echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>";
echo "<img src=\"images/catalog/ottomans/thumbs/$chairImage\" width=\"157\" height=\"147\" />";
echo "<br />";
echo $chairName;
echo "</td>";

echo "<td>";
echo $chairName;
echo "</td>";

echo "<td>";
echo $chairDescription;
echo "</td>";




echo "</tr>";
