Arrays and tables :)

[Fatboy]

Hi guys.

I have a directory full of images.
I have them all in an array and can get them all displayed in a table of one row with lots of columns, but how would I display them in x amounts of rows and 5 colums?

Here is the code bit:

print "<table width='150' height='100' border='0' cellpadding='1' cellspacing='0'>";
 print "<tr>";
 for($i=0; $i<count($thumbs); $i++)
 {
  $imgsrc = $webpath."/".$thumbs[$i];
  print "<td><a href='$imgsrc' target='_blank' border='0'><img src = '$imgsrc' width='160' height='100'></a></td>";
 }
 print "</tr>";
 print "</table>";

Cheers guys (and be gentle on me - I am just learning this PHP stuff 🙂

You program a "</tr>" and a "<tr>" into the loop every 5 iterations.

The Modulus operator is what you'd need. Inside your "for" loop:

if (($i%5)==0) {
      echo "</tr><tr><td>"; 
     // or whatever exactly is needed for formatting...

The expression ($i%5) determines the remainder when $i is divided by 5. If it's zero, then we know that the image count is 5, 10, 15, etc.......
