Hi
I need to represent a sort of map. The map is a rectangular table of size X in widht and Y in
height, so that I have X*Y square cells. I need to record in a database some infos for each cell.
This is easy, I thought to use a record that is something like (X,Y,MyData), so with two nested
loops I can create the HTML table with data in it.
The problem is that I need to join adjacent cells, so that I can obtain bigger cells made of base
little square cells.
So, starting from a table like this
[FONT="Courier New"]
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| | | | | | | | | |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| | | | | | | | | |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| | | | | | | | | |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
[/FONT]
I must find a way to store in the database a table like this
[FONT="Courier New"]
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| 2 | | | |4 cells|
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| |BIGBIGB| | | | |
+-+BIGBIGB+-+-+-+-+
| |BIGBIGB| | | | |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
[/FONT]
I thougt to use a record like (X,Y,XWIDTH,YHEIGHT,DATA), but I cannot imagine the way to create
the resulting HTML table.
Using graphics will be a lot easyer, but I must insert combos and checkboxes into the cells, so I
must use html...
Any ideas?
Thanks!
