array data echo into table

[hsub]

hi all,

i can't seem to figure out how to do this.

below is a bit of code that sort through an array and return the 3 highest value.

i would like to then take those three values and place them separately into the <div id> tags.

 

<?

$array = array(5, 8694, 13,5,46,84,9,48684,8642,54,3,664,87,93,24,56,487,9341,8432);

rsort($array);

for($i = 0; $i < 3; $i++) // Only loop 10 times.

echo $array[$i] . "<br>";

?>

 

<div id="container">

  <div id="left"> <?php  echo $highest?></div>

 

<div id="center"><?php  echo $secondhighest; ?></div>

 

<div id="right"><?php  echo $thirdhighest; ?></div>

</div>

 

thank you in advance for any help on this.

The three highest from that array after it's sorted will be:

 

$array[0]; // highest
$array[1]; // second highest
$array[2]; // third highest

 

I'd recommend not using an array named $array though, may run into troubles...

Why's that? Since PHP uses the $ symbol for variables, there's no issue with using reserved words as variable names.
