[SOLVED] How would I create a dynamic table Javascript?

[madspof]

I have picture section where users can upload pictures to my website and I have created a basic way viewing these pictures but this is not astheticaly pleasing. So i was wondering if i could populate a html table with these pictures.

 

The way this system works is that it uses a while loop that brings the date, url and also who uploaded the picture into the page. I was wondering if this information could be put into a table but i cannot see a way.

 

Here is a live demo: www.deskfun.co.nr/testing/list/listing.php

Here is the code i have:

<?php 
include("connect.php");
$query  = "SELECT picid, userid, url, date FROM userpic";
$result = mysql_query($query);
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{

    echo "This is the $number User. <br><br>" . 
	 "Name :{$row['picid']} <br>" .
         "Subject : {$row['userid']} <br>" .
         "<img src='{$row['url']}' width='400' height='300'><br>" .
	 "Date uploaded : {$row['date']} <br><br><br>";
}

?>

An HTML table is just like any other html. Just echo it. What is the problem?

[madspof]

Well i cannot make it so that the table works in a way that it poppulates sideways as well as downwords if you see what i mean

 

[Jessica]

No I don't see what you mean. Are you saying you don't know how to do more than one cell per row?

[madspof]

Well i cannot get the script to create rows only collums could you give me an insight on what i would need to do thanks

[Jessica]

Say you want three cells per row.

It would work like this (this isn't tested but it should be close, you might have to work with it a bit)

<?php
print '<table>';
$counter = 0;
$cellsPer = 3;
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
   if($counter%$cellsPer == 0){
      print '<tr>';
   }
   print '<td>';
   print "This is the $number User. <br><br>" . 
   "Name :{$row['picid']} <br>" .
   "Subject : {$row['userid']} <br>" .
   "<img src='{$row['url']}' width='400' height='300'><br>" .
   "Date uploaded : {$row['date']} <br><br><br>";
   print '</td>';
   if(($counter+1)%$cellsPer == 0){
      print '</tr>';
   }
}
?>

lol you can use more than one table cell per table row. thats just ridiculous.

[Jessica]

darkfreaks, considering some of the questions you've asked earlier today, let's leave the rude and sarcastic remarks to the professionals. If you're not actually going to HELP, hold back on the snark.

[madspof]

quick question what is the differences between print and echo

[Jessica]

None really. I prefer print, but other prefer echo because it is one character shorter. It's a habit.

[darkfreaks]

im an echo man haha

[madspof]

okay thanks and i changed that script a bit and it worked excelent just what i needed thanks

[Jessica]

No problem.
