MasterACE14 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 try: <?php echo '<pre>'; echo ($queryresults); echo '</pre>'; ?> This should format your layout, but I don't know how to work how many columns you want, your best bet is to display results in a HTML table.

MasterACE14 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 I'm so close! take a look: <head> <title>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body> <?php //connect mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "") or die(mysql_error()); mysql_select_db("directory") or die(mysql_error()); //select table $result = mysql_query ("SELECT * FROM countries WHERE statut = 1"); //print result while ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($result)){ $id=$row["id"]; $statut=$row["statut"]; $country=$row["country"]; echo '<table border="1">'; echo '<tr>'; echo '<td><a href="showlinks.php?country={$country}">$country</a></td>'; echo '</tr>'; echo '</table>'; } ?> </body> </html> just having trouble echo'ing the $country that is displayed in the table.

porta325 Posted June 19, 2007 Author Share Posted June 19, 2007 This can't possibly work, it must be some kinda loop. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/56187-return-querry-by-rows/#findComment-277543 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterACE14 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 the table does work with the loop, it will add a new column to the table for every result etc. unless I've missed something and your trying to do something else ??? UPDATED: Got it! I don't know if its what you wanted or not, but I got it working <head> <title>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body> <?php //connect mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "") or die(mysql_error()); mysql_select_db("directory") or die(mysql_error()); //select table $result = mysql_query ("SELECT * FROM countries WHERE statut = 1"); //print result while ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($result)){ $id=$row["id"]; $statut=$row["statut"]; $country=$row["country"]; echo '<table border="1">'; echo '<tr>'; echo '<td>'; echo '<td><a href="showlinks.php?country=$country">' . $country . '</a></td>'; echo '</td>'; echo '</tr>'; echo '</table>'; } ?> </body> </html> you can also show other things in the table that relate to that one result. echo '<table border="1">'; echo '<tr>'; echo '<td>'; echo '<td>' . $id . '</td>'; echo '<td>' . $statut . '</td>'; echo '<td><a href="showlinks.php?country=$country">' . $country .

MasterACE14 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 hmm, I'm guessing you need to use arrays to do that, but I'm no good with arrays sorry :-\ Regards ACE Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/56187-return-querry-by-rows/#findComment-277553 Share on other sites More sharing options...
