Question

I’m trying, but I’m stucked with the logic… so, I have this:

$max_items=10;  echo '<table>'; echo '<tr>';  foreach ($feed->get_items(0, $max_items) as $item):   echo '<td>'; echo $some_value;  echo '</td>';  endforeach;   echo '</tr>'; echo '</table>'; 

I want to show the results like this:

[1][2] [3][4] [5][6] [7][8] [9][10] 

I have to use a while statement? A for loop? Inside or outside the foreach code?

I really don’t get it…

Thanks for any kind of help

Answer 1

Here’s a very simple example of how to do this sort of HTML building.

<?php  $data = range( 'a', 'z' ); $numCols = 2;  echo '<table>\n'; echo '\t<tr>\n';  foreach( $data as $i => $item ) {     if ( $i != 0 && $i++ % $numCols == 0 )     {         echo '\t</tr>\n\t<tr>\n';     }     echo '\t\t<td>$item</td>\n'; }  echo '\t</tr>\n'; echo '</table>'; 

This way, you can change $numCols to be 3 or 4 (or any number) and always see that number of columns in the output, and it does so without using an nested loop.
