Hello PHP'ers.
First of all - scince joining this list I have got some great help and it is
really helping my build me site so a BIG thank you to all.
Now back to the help..........
I have a table with cols, and say 20 rows in this table.
col: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
row: notnull stuff 4 test blah duh dud
notnull stuf blah blah test duh dud
as you can see col 1 is ALWAYS populated as it is notnull the rest
are/aren't populated.
I want to search on this table (in real life it has hundreds of rows)
so select * from testable;
I then want to generate a HTML table in php DEPENDING on how many rows are
populated
so for example the table for row 1 would look like this
1 notnull
4 stuff
5 4
7 test
8 blah
9 duh
10 dud
while row 2 would look
1 notnull
3 stuff
5 blah
6 blah
7 blah
9 duh
10 dud
I am thinking I would have to do some sort of while loop on an array of all
fields, but how would I single out the null fields in the array and generate
everything else ????
thanks
Matt
