[RESOLVED] Split foreach into columns

[mramonster]

Is there a way to split up the foreach echo into a 3 list column or a 3 column table?

function albums($dir) {
//for now only one level of albums works.
	global $album, $title, $photos, $divider, $logo, $photo;
	$dirs=getdirs($dir);
	if (isset($logo)) { echo $logo; }
	if (isset($album)) { echo "<h1>".$album."</h1>"; } else { echo "<h2>".$title."<br /></h2>"; }

echo "<div class=\"album\"><table><tr><p>";
if (isset($album) || isset($photo)) { echo "<a href=\"".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."\">$title Home</a>$divider\n"; }
else {  }
if (count($dirs)>0) {
	foreach ($dirs as $value) {
	   echo "<td><a href=\"".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."?album=".urlencode($value)."\">".$value."</a>$divider</td>\n";
	}
}
echo "</p></tr></table></div>";
}

add an auto-incrememnt and have it return a </tr><tr> in after 3 entries

Alright I've experimented with it a bit but haven't gotten it to work properly yet. This is what I've got so far:

function albums($dir) {
//for now only one level of albums works.
    global $album, $title, $photos, $divider, $logo, $photo;
    $dirs=getdirs($dir);
    if (isset($logo)) { echo $logo; }
    if (isset($album)) { echo "<h1>".$album."</h1>"; } else { echo "<h2>".$title."<br /></h2>"; } 

echo "<div class=\"album\"><table>";
if (isset($album) || isset($photo)) { echo "<a href=\"".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."\">$title Home</a>$divider\n"; }
else {  }
$i = 0;
if (count($dirs)>$i) {
	foreach ($dirs as $value) {
	 	if (is_int(($i+1)/3)) echo "<tr>"; 
	   echo "<td><a href=\"".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."?album=".urlencode($value)."\">".$value."</a>$divider</td>\n";
	 	if (is_int(($i+1)/3)) echo "</tr>"; 
	}
}
echo "</table></div>";
}

It is just a typo, you forgot to increment $i

        foreach ($dirs as $value) {
             if (is_int(($i+1)/3)) echo "<tr>";
           echo "<td><a href=\"".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."?album=".urlencode($value)."\">".$value."</a>$divider</td>\n";
             if (is_int(($i+1)/3)) echo "</tr>";
             $i += 1;
        }
