I need my table to include submissions into three columns then a new row start with three more columns, etc. So submission 1, first column, submission 2, second column, submission 3, 3 column. Then a new row and the process starts again. (HTML Example Code below)
Every time I try with my php code my page comes up blank so I am missing something somewhere.
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
$sql = "SELECT id, name, website, url, email, date, description FROM basic";
$result = $conn->query($sql);
if ($result->num_rows>0){
<tr>
while ($row=$result->fetch_assoc()) {
echo "<table><tr><th><b>Company:</b> " . $row["name"]. "</th></tr><tr><td>
<b>URL:</b> <a href='".$row["url"]."'>".$row["url"]."</a></td></tr><tr><td>
<b>Email:</b> " . $row["email"]. "</td></tr><tr><td><b>Launch Date:</b> " .
$row["date"]. "</td></tr><tr><td><b>Announcement:</b> " .
$row["description"]. "</td>
</tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
} else {
echo "0 results";
}
$conn->close();
?>
Example: This is what I am trying to get it to look like.
<style>
table, td, th {
border: 10px solid #ffffff;
text-align: left;
}
table {
border-collapse: initial;
width: 100%;
}
td {
padding: 15px;
width: 25%;
line-height: 2;
}
th {
background-color: grey;
color: white;
padding: 5px;
width: 25%;
}
</style>
<body>
<table class="ex1">
<tr>
<th>Company</th>
<th>Company</th>
<th>Company</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<b>URL:</b><br>
<b>Location:</b><br>
<b>Inductry:</b><br>
<b>Start Date:</b><br>
<b>Announcement:</b><br>
<br>
</td>
<td>
<b>URL:</b><br>
<b>Location:</b><br>
<b>Inductry:</b><br>
<b>Start Date:</b><br>
<b>Announcement:</b><br>
<br>
</td>
<td>
<b>URL:</b><br>
<b>Location:</b><br>
<b>Inductry:</b><br>
<b>Start Date:</b><br>
<b>Announcement:</b><br>
<br>
</td>
</table>
Your PHP code is not generating HTML in proper format. Please try below:
// Query executed here and resultset returned
if ($result->num_rows>0){
echo "<table>";
while ($row=$result->fetch_assoc()) {
echo "<tr><th><b>Company:</b> " . $row["name"]. "</th></tr>
<tr><td><b>URL:</b> <a href='".$row["url"]."'>".$row["url"]."</a></td></tr>
<tr><td><b>Email:</b> " . $row["email"]. "</td></tr>
<tr><td><b>Launch Date:</b> " . $row["date"]. "</td></tr>
<tr><td><b>Announcement:</b> " . $row["description"]. "</td></tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
} else {
echo "0 results";
}
