Question

I’m building this function but I’m not getting the desired output, it’s been more than 5 hours I’m still on this.

I have this code:

$result = mysql_query("SELECT $checked FROM hostess");
echo "<table border='1'>";
foreach( $checked1 as $key => $value){
   echo "<th> $value </th>";

   while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
      foreach($checked1 as $key => $value){
         echo "<tr>" . $row[$value] . "</tr>"; 
      }
   }
}
echo "</table>";

What I need is to print the first $value as the heads of the table, then the $row[value] as the rows, but I get to print the headings, then the rest just prints in a single line, all of it.

Ok, I understand better now. Your issue is that you’re not printing the tags and values in the right order. Try this:

$result = mysql_query("SELECT $checked FROM hostess");
echo "<table border='1'>";
echo "<thead><tr>"
foreach( $checked1 as $key => $value){
   echo "<th> $value </th>";
}
echo "</tr></thead>";

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
    echo "<tr>";
    foreach($checked1 as $key => $value){
        echo "<td>" . $row[$value] . "</td>"; 
    }
    echo "</tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
