You could actually just use CSS styling to achieve this. Give the images display: inline-block; and they will tile horizontally until they get to the edge of the parent container, then drop down and continue on.

Example: http://jsfiddle.net/fzbe4jpm/

To achieve it with a for loop, you can use the modulus operator to decide when to insert a line break.
$i = 1;
foreach ($images as $image) {
	if ($i % 4 === 0) { 
		echo '<br />';
	}

	echo '<img src="' . $image . '" />';

	$i++;	
}
Something like that.

Thank you for the tip. A for loop did actually work... This prints the result/format that was required:

<html>

<body>

<?php

for ($number = 1; $number <= 8; $number++) {

if ($number % 4 === 1){

echo '</tr>';

}

echo '<td>'.$number.'</td>';

}

?>

</tr></table>

</body>

</html>

So, I currently have a script (in beta mode, only works when the sun shines), that can upload an image and store directly in a mysql database (using the BLOB data type); the script is also able to retrieve the BLOB data and display them vertically on the page; I actually need to dsiplay them horizontally across the page instead. So currently the retrieved images are printed in this format:

1

2

3

4

5

6

7

8

and I need it to print this way:

1 2 3 4

5 6 7 8

sounds like a for loop somewhere... any takers on how to implement the feature?
