I'm not sure if this qualifies as a mysql or a php question so I'm
asking in both groups.
I am pulling the results of a mysql query from my database and want to
print the results into a two column table. I know how to get the results
into a single column table just fine using:
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
print "<table border=2><tr><th>" . $row[name];
print "<tr><td>";
print mysql_field_name($result, 0) . ": " . $row[ID]."<br>";
print mysql_field_name($result, 1) . ": " . $row[name]."<br>";
print mysql_field_name($result, 2) . ": " . $row[address]."<br>";
print mysql_field_name($result, 3) . ": " . $row[city]."<br>";
print mysql_field_name($result, 4) . ": " . $row[telephone]."<br>";
print "</td></tr>";
print "</table>\n";
print "<br><br>";
}
and it works fine. But my efforts to get the reults into a two column
setup have become frustrating. My latest attempt was:
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
print "<table border=2 width='90%'>";
print "<tr>";
print "<td>";
print "<b>" . $row[name] . "</b><br>";
print mysql_field_name($result, 0) . ": " . $row[ID]."<br>";
print mysql_field_name($result, 1) . ": " . $row[name]."<br>";
print mysql_field_name($result, 2) . ": " . $row[address]."<br>";
print mysql_field_name($result, 3) . ": " . $row[city]."<br>";
print mysql_field_name($result, 4) . ": " . $row[telephone]."<br>";
print "</td>";
print "<td>";
print mysql_field_name($result, 0) . ": " . $row[ID]."<br>";
print mysql_field_name($result, 1) . ": " . $row[name]."<br>";
print mysql_field_name($result, 2) . ": " . $row[address]."<br>";
print mysql_field_name($result, 3) . ": " . $row[city]."<br>";
print mysql_field_name($result, 4) . ": " . $row[telephone]."<br>";
print "</td>";
print "</tr>";
print "</table>\n";
print "<br><br>";
}
This puts the same data from a single result in both <td> fields though.
I want it to put data from the first result in the left <td> and data
from the second result in the right side and continue on from there
until the end.
What am I overlooking on this to make it work as I need it to?
