I need some sleep right now, my brain is in low gear....
Here's what I'm trying to do.
Basically have 3 HTML columns (<td></td>) printed to a web page but have them in
alphabetical
order from top to bottom and then continuing onto the next column.
Like you would see in an index of a book.
This code works fine except for when there are 4 items (dbrows)
to be displayed. ceil($rows / 3) (see below) becomes 2 so it allows
two items in each colum resulting to only 2 HTML colums being displayed.
Can anyone come up with a better way to do this?
---------------- Start -------------------------------------------------------------------
<?php
for ($j=1; $j<20; $j++){
$rows = $j;
print "\n\n<!-- NEW TABLE -->\n\n";
print "<table border=\"1\"><tr><td
valign=\"top\">\n\n";
print "<table>\n";
for ($i = 1; $i < $rows+1; $i++) {
print "<tr>\n";
print "<td>Data</td>\n";
print "<td>$i</td>\n";
print "</tr>\n";
if ($i % ceil($rows / 3) == 0 ){
print "</table></td>\n";
if ($i != $rows ){
print "<td valign=\"top\"><table>\n";
}
}
}
print "</tr></table>\n\n";
print "</td></tr></table>\n";
print "\n\n<!-- Close NEW TABLE -->\n\n";
print "<p>";
print "<HR>";
print "$j";
print "<HR>";
print "<p>";
}
?>
