Hi,
This is a bit of a follow up from an earlier question. I have managed to writePHP code to draw my info line by line from the MySql database. My test script output the print in one long stream of info - but at least I know its doing what its supposed to as far as the retrieval is concerned.
What I want to do now is print this info neatly. There are about 15 columns and up to 25 rows. Some of the columns MAY have info or may be blank. There may be one row or up to 25 rows, with a total row below that.

Should I be creating a table (inside a layer) for the out put or printing one long line and then the next line......
I cant work out how to print a line at a time to fill a table that will vary in row size.

Any pointers or sample code I can scrutinise? ? ? ?

Cheers,

Sandy

Vary in row size?

If you dont want a row or something, you could 'theoritically' just do something like..

CODE
<?
if($row[field] != "")
{
echo "<td>$row[field]</td";
}
