i think he did catch your drift, he just assumed that you might possess the knowledge to transform what he gave you to your specific request. What you were given was the code to effectively do "something different" every third result. This is exactly what you need. You just want it to give you a new row in a table every third result instead of a line break. not exactly a big leap was it...
saying that, i'd do it this way:
echo "<table>";
echo "<tr>";
$count = 0;
for($i=0;$i<sizeof($array);$i++)
{
$count++;
if($count == 1)
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>".$array[$i]."</td>";
if($count == 3)
{
echo "</tr>";
$count = 0;
}
}
echo "</table>";
You might also be interested in this thread started yesterday i think, which asks (and answers) pretty much exactly the same question as you've just done.
