Table format needs php correction

Hi! This is a problem of the table formatting on a form in MySQL and PHP. It may be in the HTML table code. The problem is one that must be frequent. I have a mixture of one character and long fill-in text items. My table now looks awkward. Somebody gave me a complex table that puts colors as backgrounds behind the headers. Could that be the problem? -Gloria Here is the URL to view PHP HTML table as it appears on screen: http://DakotaCom.net/~glomc/forms/CAT.php Here is the mysql create table structure file: # # Table structure for table 'CAT' # CREATE TABLE CAT ( id int(10) unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL auto_increment, added datetime DEFAULT '0000-00-00 00:00:00' NOT NULL, name varchar(50) NOT NULL, course varchar(50) NOT NULL, unit varchar(50) NOT NULL, q1 text NOT NULL, q2 text NOT NULL, q3 text NOT NULL, q4 text NOT NULL, q5 varchar(10) NOT NULL, q6 varchar(10) NOT NULL, q7 varchar(10) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (id) ); Here is the table HTML part of the PHP file: print "<table>\n"; while ($line = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC)) { print "\t<tr>\n"; foreach ($line as $col_value) { print "\t\t<td>$col_value</td>\n"; } print "\t</tr>\n"; } print "</table>\n"; */ while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC)) { printf(" <div class=\"colorfield\"> <table> <tr><th>Date</th><th>Name</th><th>Course</th><th>Unit</th>\n <tr><td>%s</td><td>%s</td><td>%s</td><td>%s</td></tr>\n <tr><th = colspan = 4> Q1 </th>\n <tr><td>%s</td>\n <tr><th = colspan = 4> Q2 </th>\n <tr><td>%s</td>\n <tr><th = colspan = 4> Q3 </th>\n <tr><td>%s</td>\n <tr><th = colspan = 4> Q4 </th>\n <tr><td>%s</td>\n <tr><th>Q5</th><th>Q6</th><th>Q7</th>\n <tr><td>%s</td><td>%s</td><td>%s</td>\n </table> </div>\n", $row['added'], $row['name'], $row['course'], $row['unit'], $row['q1'], $row['q2'], $row['q3'], $row['q4'], $row['q5'], $row['q6'], $row['q7']); } /* Free resultset */ mysql_free_result($result); /* Close the database connection */ mysql_close($link); ?> </body> </html>
