Question

i have one class in php returning number of records.
i use table to display name like that

foreach($getArtist as $getArtist)
{
echo "<tr><td>".$getArtist['name']."</td></tr>";
}

this works fine and display each name in one row

now i want to display 3 names in one row

foreach($getArtist as $getArtist)
{
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>".$getArtist['name']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$getArtist['name']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$getArtist['name']."</td>";
echo "</tr>";
}

but this is displaying each name 3 times, but i need to display 3 names in one row then other 3 names in other row and when record finish loop finish

Answer 1

Try:

foreach (array_chunk($getArtist, 3) as $artists) {
  echo '<tr>';
  foreach (array_pad($artists, 3, array('name' => '&nbsp;')) as $artist) {
    echo '<td>' . $artist['name'] . '</td>';
  }
  echo '</tr>';
}
