Outputting $ in table with 4 cols

[griffith]

Have made this loop:

while($entry=$d->read()) {
if ($entry != ".." and $entry != ".")
{
echo $where.$entry."<br>\n";
}
}

it outputs the files in one dir..anyway..
I have lotsa image urls in a database, and i want to output the url's in a table.. the table has 4 cols and rows until there is no more urls.. how do I make that..? how can I get the First url to get into the first col in the first row, and the second url into the second col in the first row, and so on..?

Could someone please help me??

Griffith, the modulus (%) operator is what you want. It divides one number by another and returns the remainder. You can read more about it in the php manual. Anyway, the way you would do it is something like this:

//HTML starts here
<table>
<tr>
//PHP starts here
<?php
$count = 1;
while ($entry = $d->read()) {

if (($entry != "..") && ($entry != ".")) {

echo "<td>$where.$entry</td>\n";

if (($count % 4) == 0) {

echo "</tr><tr>\n";

}
}
$count++;
}

//End of PHP
?>

//End of HTML
</tr>
