Re: inserting data into columns and rows in php.

Check this snippet : <TABLE> <? $rowCount = 0; $numberOfCols = 2; while ( <fetch row from your database> ) { if ( ($rowCount % $numberOfCols)==0) echo " <TR>\n"; echo ' <TD>' . <what ever you got from the database> ."</TD>\n"; if ( ($rowCount % $numberOfCols)==0) echo " </TR>\n"; $rowCount++; } ?> </TABLE> Comments : * the spaces and the \n charetes before and after the <TR> <TD> etc. are for better readability of source (if you view the source of the output page in the browser). You should try to work that way for easier debugging of output pages. * The script is written that way for easier reading. you could make some shortcuts, but I wanted it be readable. Instead of the $numberOfCols you could substitute it with the number itself. The script here is generic so it would much both Maniac's and your ColCount.
