You've got some major syntax problems there, the most obvious of which is
starting a new print() tag without closing the first one. You also needed to
rethink the syntax of all your quotes, as there are/were a great many problems
in the link portion alone.
I've included below a slightly edited piece of your code to get you on the right
track. I recommend that you look very closely at that quote syntax, as what I
gave you isn't perfect, either, but at least this will display *something* if
you take it out of the for() loop.
<?
for($i = 1; $i=$tableLayout->ntab;$i++) {
print '<div id="Tab[$i]" class="tab" style="position:absolute;
left:80*[$i]px; top:185px; width:80px; height:20px; z-index:1;
visibility:visible">';
print '<a href="\'Tab[$i]\',\'Folder[$i]\'">Table 1</a></div>';
}
?>

Subject: dhtml within php
Hello,
I'm working on a web page that displays the tables of a database and
their contents. The php script for accessing the database and
displaying the tables is in place. Now I want to manipulate the web
page layout so that the db tables are displayed in a series of folders
with tabs, with the current table being visible. I can't get the right
syntax for printing out <div>s within a php loop. Here's what I have ...
for($i = 1; $i=$tableLayout->ntab;$i++) {
// create tabs
print('<div id="Tab[$i]" class="tab"
style="position:absolute; left:80*[$i]px; top:185px;
width:80px;
height:20px; z-index:1; visibility:visible">
<a
href="javascript:turnOn('Tab[$i]','Folder[$i]')">Table 1</a>
print('</div>');
The code for the folders containing the db tables is similar. The
function turnOn() is defined in the header, along with a javascript
function for switching tabs and tables when the user clicks a tab. Is
this a big syntax problem, or do I need to take a different approach?
Thanks,
Robbie
