how to display results in html table?

[rickdeet]

Hi there,

How do I display results from a query in an HTML table?

I'd like the table rows on my HTML page to be generated as needed by the results that will be displayed.

I will be getting these results from about 4 arrays that will be displayed in 4 columns in my HTML table.

Thanks,

Rick

Something like this:

<table>
<?php
for ($r = 0; $r < sizeof($arr1); $r++) {
?>
<tr>
<td><%=$arr1[$r];%></td>
<td><%=$arr2[$r];%></td>
<td><%=$arr3[$r];%></td>
<td><%=$arr4[$r];%></td>
</tr>
<?
}
?>
</table>

This assumes you ASP tags turned on in PHP.INI (enables easier markup syntax for <%=$var;%>).

Thanks for the reply.

Since I don't really know ASP, I don't understand what you've said about ASP tags. Is there another way to do it using ASP?

I'm on a Unix server.

I think he means PHP has an option to use ASP shorthand syntax, which allows you to reference variabels in your html like this---

<%=$var;%>

just turn this line on in your php.ini file...

asp_tags = On ; allow ASP-style <% %> tags

OK, but what's the way to do it using PHP syntax?

I'm having enough trouble getting used to PHP, let alone mixing ASP into it!

Thanks,

Rick

it would be <? =$var; ?>

instead of <% =$var; %>
