Hi All,
I'm trying to display results across 3 cells - for example:
#5 Perle Cotton
223 | 225 | 301
304 | 326 | 333
#12 Perle Cotton
211 | 223 | 224
225 | 356 |
#4 Braid
95 | 100HL | 102
Right NOW it is displaying like:
#5 Perle Cotton
223 | 225
301 | 304| 326
#12 Perle Cotton
211 | 223
224 | 225| 356
#4 Braid
95 | 100HL
102
This is the code I am working with:
$z =0;
while ($thread = db_fetch($tresult))
{
// if z is divisible by 3
echo ($z %3 == 0) ? '<tr>' : '';
if ($thread_type != $thread['type'])
{
echo "<td
colspan=\"3\">{$thread[type]}</td>\n";
while($z++ %3 !==0)
{
// if
not enough tds - add empty tds until end of tr
echo
'<td> </td>';
}
// everytime we get here - we have just
filled a tr with tds,
// so start new tr and output type,
then start another new tr
echo '</tr><tr><td colspan="3"> type
</td></tr><tr>';
$thread_type = $thread[type];
}
echo '<td> '.$thread[colourID].' </td>';
// end the tr on every third cycle
echo (++$z %3 == 0) ? '</tr>' : '';
}
The HTML looks like:
<tr>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="3"> #5 Perle Cotton </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> 223 </td>
<td> 225 </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> 301 </td>
<td> 304 </td>
<td> 326 </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> 333 </td>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="3"> #12 Perle Cotton </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> 211 </td>
<td> 223 </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> 224 </td>
<td> 225 </td>
<td> 356 </td>
</tr>
<tr>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="3"> #4 Braid </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> 95 </td>
<td> 100HL </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> 102 </td>
can ANYONE see where I have gone wrong?
Any guidance is appreciated.
Thanks!
Aaron
