[RESOLVED] changing direction

hi,
how can i get this script to display the results horizontal?

Thanks...

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#FF0000">
<td nowrap="nowrap">
<?php 
while($rows=mysql_fetch_array($result)){ ?> 
			<table>
				<td height="<?php echo $rows['id']; ?>"><?php echo $rows['id']; ?></td>  

			</table>                 

<?php } ?></td>
</table>

I have made the code simple - though it still displays one result below another?

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#FF0000">
  <tr>
<?php
while($rows=mysql_fetch_array($result)){ ?>
    <td height="<?php echo $rows['id']; ?>"><?php echo $rows['id']; ?></td>  

<?php } ?>
  </tr>
</table>

ok, but i am trying to create a barchart to display how many views each of my items get. so i assume that a table would be needed to allow for the different hights. Thanks

Shouldn't it be more like this?

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#FF0000">
  <tr>
<?php
while($rows=mysql_fetch_array($result)){ ?>
    <td height="<?php echo $rows['id']; ?>">?tr/?? tr?  <?php echo $rows['id']; ?></td>  

<?php } ?>
  </tr>
</table>

Also, remeber to use "?tr?" before "?td?" and after "?table? "

Ummm....OK....I have no idea then. If I were going to display a bar chart, I would use images, not tables. Just make a 1-by-1 image of the desired color, then use the height and width attributes of the <img> tag to set the desired dimensions.

Thanks, the simple solution always the best =D

ok, now how would i add a row or extra table to display the views value?

this code below makes them vertical again...

<table width="100%" cellspacing="1">
  <tr>
<?php
while($rows=mysql_fetch_array($result)){ ?>
	<td><img src="../images/bar.jpg" align="bottom" width="30" height="<?php echo $rows['views']; ?>"  />
	<tr><td><span>1</span></td>
	</tr>
<?php } ?>
	</td>
  </tr>
</table>
