Absorbator Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Did you try tables? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/171950-need-help-php-displaying-data-in-2-columns-thank-you/#findComment-906670 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bchandel Posted August 26, 2009 Author Share Posted August 26, 2009 Thank you for your message. I tried table to display data in usual form. I was wondering if there is better way to display date on a page dividing it in to 2 columns and then display say general information Name, Phone, Fax etc in one column and display say picture, e-mail and Web site picture in other column. This will be helpful to use most of the page area and have some needed prominent field data in the second column. I think we can style page using css style sheets and creating 2 div areas. Then only need to figure out how to display data from a script in a particular div areas. Is it possible to have multiple table on a page and display required data in them as desired. So say first table only have Name and Phone data and second table may have picture, e-mail and website fields data. Thank you!
