OK, using this code: <? echo "<table border=\"0\">\n"; echo "<tr>\n"; $photocount = 0; while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $smallpic = $row['smallpic']; echo "<td>$smallpic</td>\n"; if (($photocount % 3) == 2) { echo "</tr>\n<tr>\n"; } $photocount++; } echo "</tr>\n"; echo "</table>"; ?> And 8 photos in the table, I'm getting this output: <table border="0"> <tr> <td>sm982438092.gif</td> <td>sm982437452.gif</td> <td>sm982439016.gif</td> </tr> <tr> <td>sm982529915.gif</td> <td>sm983222652.gif</td> <td>sm983222686.gif</td> </tr> <tr> <td>sm983222868.gif</td> <td>sm983222919.gif</td> </tr> </table> Great, except it's missing an end cell, and after a few hours fiddling about with code last night, I still didn't get any further in working out how I was going to echo a table cell even if data's missing. So, any help would be appreciated. Apologies for what're probably "easy" questions. I slog away at work all day, come back hoping to get something productive done on this, and the ol'brain won't take it. Frustrating, to say the least. James.
