nsanford Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I need to pull information from a db table for a slideshow on my page, and need a little help. All of the {$image}'s need to be pulled out and displayed in a div#slider first, then if $caption is set to 1, the caption info is displayed in a div#htmlcaption after the images div#slider. I have an example of the divs below the mysql query, but I'm not sure how to insert it into the while loop. TIA <?php $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM slideshow"); if(mysql_num_rows($sql) > 0) { while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql)) { $slideID = $row['slideID']; $image = $row['image']; $caption = $row['caption']; $caption_h3 = $row['caption_h3']; $caption_content = $row['caption_content']; $caption_link = $row['caption_link']; $caption_link_text = $row['caption_link_text']; } } ?> <div id="slider"> <img src="{$image}" alt="" title="#htmlcaption{$slideID}" /> <img src="{$image}" alt="" title="#htmlcaption{$slideID}" /> <img src="{$image}" alt="" title="#htmlcaption{$slideID}" /> </div> <div id="htmlcaption{$slideID}" class="nivo-html-caption"> <h3>$caption_h3</h3> <p>$caption_content</p> if($caption_link != '') { <p><a href="{$caption_link}">{$caption_link_text}</a></p> } </div> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/252185-while-loop-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
scootstah Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Something like this? $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM slideshow"); if(mysql_num_rows($sql) > 0) { $images = array(); $captions = array(); while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql)) { $images[] = array( 'slideID' => $row['slideID'], 'image' => $row['image'] ); if ($row['caption'] == 1) { $captions[] = array( 'slideID' => $row['slideID'], 'caption_h3' => $row['caption_h3'], 'caption_content' => $row['caption_content'], 'caption_link' => $row['caption_link'], 'caption_link_text' => $row['caption_link_text'] ); } } echo '<div id="slider">'; foreach($images as $i) { echo '<img src="' . $i['image'] . '" alt="" title="#htmlcaption{' . $i['slideID'] . '}" />'; } echo '</div>'; if (!empty($captions)) { foreach($captions as $c) { echo '<div id="htmlcaption{' . $c['slideID'] . '} class="nivo-html-caption"> <h3>' . $c['caption_h3'] . '</h3> <p>' . $c['caption_content'] . '</p> ' . ($c['caption_link'] != '' ? '<p><a href="' . $c['caption_link'] . '">' . $caption_link_text . '</a>' : ''); } } } Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/252185-while-loop-help/#findComment-1292927 Share on other sites More sharing options...
