RE: [PHP-DB] Re: Making a new row in HTML tables

Well it seems what you're trying to do is to set as square a table as you can. So, take your number of entries and square root it. Now round it up. Now divide the number of entries by that number and again round up. Now use these two numbers to make the table. Should be pretty straighforward... - seb -----Original Message----- From: Ian Grant [mailto:ian.grant@btinternet.com] Sent: 25 July 2001 17:28 To: php-db@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP-DB] Re: Making a new row in HTML tables Yeah, but if I had 31, I'd want 6x5 and then 1 over, or something....
