MADTinus Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) Hello there, I've made a very simple file to put some requested data in a tabel-form. Somehow first the output starts with about 60-70 blank lines, and then the output. Somewere I made a mistake, but the longer I look, the harder it get tot see. Please can someone show me the mistake. See below/ Thanks, Martin.

Solution ginerjm Posted February 27, 2015 Solution Share Posted February 27, 2015 You are seeing all the <br> tags echoed out first because you inserted them inside an html table. You can't do that. This code: <td>' . $row['Plaats'] . '</td> </tr> <br> THIS IS BAD '; ; THIS IS NOT NEEDED } should be changed to remove the <br> and the EXTRA ; line. <td>' . $row['Plaats'] . '</td> </tr> '; } Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/294925-blank-lines-in-output/#findComment-1506891 Share on other sites More sharing options...
