Re: Creating a Table to line query results in php?

Thanks....I was trying to do that but was not working for me. I think I was over thinking it. The obvious is never obvious :) On 2/25/07, Matt Anderton <manderton@gmail.com> wrote:

why not just create a table? echo "<table>\n"; echo "<tr><th>Image</th><th>Name</th><th>Effect</th><th>Category</th><th>Origin</th></tr>\n"; while ($data = mysql_fetch_array($res)) { echo "<tr>\n"; echo "<tr>" . $data['Image'] . "</tr>\n"; echo "<tr>" . $data['Name'] . "</tr>\n"; echo "<tr>" . $data['Effect'] . "</tr>\n"; echo "<tr>" . $data['Category'] . "</tr>\n"; echo "<tr>" . $data['Origin'] . "</tr>\n"; echo "</tr>\n"; } echo "</table>\n"; Or am I oversimplifying? ~ matt On 2/25/07, Scott <sburcky@gmail.com> wrote: Hi everyone! How can I create a table...or even something similar...to line information up? The information is coming from an mysql database and there are 5 columns of data. Of course I am using php to call the data out of the database. A simple example: while ($data = mysql_fetch_array($res)) {

        $idfield = $data['IDFIELD'];
        $name = $data['Name'];
        $effect = $data['Effect'];
        $category = $data['Category'];
        $origin = $data['Origin'];
        $image = $data['Image'];

echo "<img src=\"image/$image\">, $name, $effect, $category, $origin<br>"; } The echo is the stuff I want to line up under the headings of the columns when they are displayed. So there are 5 headers and under the 5 headers is the resulting display of info and I want it lined up, centered, under the headers. Does that all make sense? Thanks for all of your time!
