Numbers in rows

[sith717]

Hello, How do I add numbers to the rows in a text box?

 

Like this:

 

1 test

2 lol

3 hmm more test

 

 

Like each row is numbered?

 

example: http://www.protycoon.com/2008/02/13/php-login-script-tutorial/

 

 

See the numbers where it shows the demo?

I NEED THIS DONE ASAP!

Are you talking about how they numbered their lines when showing the code? I think we're gonna have to see some of your code to help you out, as there are various ways to approach this depending on your situation.

Don't shout! were not slaves, here to do your bidding!!! I think you just lost any help you were gonna get. Well done

 

I'll say this much. You have to use a loop.

 

While (there are lines){

add $loopnum inside a text box;

}

 

That's all you're getting. Good luck!!

<textarea cols="80" rows="25" name="filebody" id="filebody" wrap="soft">hey this is a test lol</textarea>

 

In that textbox where do I add it?

 

Sorry about the shout. I need this fast...

 

Its kind of hard for me to figure out.

I still need some assistance.

I don't understand what you're trying to do, put a number in front of the box.. but all you have to do is type it. I'm kinda lost on what you're getting at, probably not showing enough code.

Like lok at the link I gave, see in the part where it shows the php code, the lines are numbered?

 

Thats what I need.

[aebstract]

The code you posted is for a form textarea which really has nothing to do with what you're asking about. That is why I want to see some of your code so I can help you out.

If possible, can u give me that script that I showed in the link?

 

Thanks.

[sith717]

Still need help..

I'll start you on your way.

 

use this:

$loop = 1;
$limit = 20; ///you have to find a way to make this how many lines there are.

while($loop <= $limit){
echo "<textarea cols='80' rows='25' name='filebody' id='filebody' wrap='soft'>$loop: hey this is a test lol</textarea>"

$loop = $loop +1;
}

 

This will produce 20 lines of "hey, this is a test" all numbered, 1 to 20.

 

Now you gotta figure out how to make it dynamic.

 

A valid point made before is that, those numbers in the page you shown us are not within a text area. They are within a td, or a div/li etc.

 

Hope that helps.

[sith717]

Yes I need the one so that its div and stuff.

Thanks.

[sith717]

Anyone?

If possible, can u give me that script that I showed in the link?

 

Thanks.

FYI the script used to display the code with line numbers/syntax highlighting is called GeSHi.

[sith717]

Is there anything simpler I can use?

 

Like you know cpanel?

 

You know how when you do code edit, it shows the numbers where the lines are.

 

I need something like that. I am making a filemanager type thing.

If you want it in a text area, you're probably gonna have to make a sized custom background with line numbers... which would kinda suck.

 

The only other way would be JavaScript. As this is so urgent, you may want to check the FreeLance forum and see how cheap you can get it done.
