I am trying to display data in table form with 3 columns. Each should have a main category with some drop down lists. I get all the information to display but all is in one column and the drop down information does not display with the correct heading.
echo "<table>";
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$count = 1;
if ($count = 1) {
$sCatID = ($row['CatID']);
echo "<tr valign='top'><td><b><a href='#" . $sCatID . "'>" . $sCatID . "</a></b><br>";
// column 1 categories
$result2 = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM test_prefixSubCat WHERE CatID=$sCatID");
// sub-cats
while ($row2 = mysql_fetch_array($result2)) {
$sSub = ($row2['CatID']);
$sSubID = ($row2['SubID']);
echo "<dd><a href='#'>" . $sSub . "</a><br>";
echo "</td>";
}
$count = 2;
} elseif ($count = 2) {
$sCatID = ($row['CatID']);
echo "<td><b><a href='.$sCatID.'>" . $sCatID . "</a></b><br>";
// column 1 categories
$result2 = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM test_prefixSubCat WHERE CatID=$sCatID");
// sub-cats
while ($row2 = mysql_fetch_array($result2)) {
$sSub = ($row2['CatID']);
$sSubID = ($row2['SubID']);
echo "<dd><a href='#'>" . $row2['Sub'] . "</a><br>";
echo "</td>";
}
$count = 3;
} elseif ($count = 3) {
$sCatID = ($row['CatID']);
echo "<td><b><a href='.$sCatID.'>" . $sCatID . "</a></b><br>";
// column 1 categories
$result2 = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM test_prefixSubCat WHERE CatID=$sCatID");
// sub-cats
while ($row2 = mysql_fetch_array($result2)) {
$sSub = ($row2['CatID']);
$sSubID = ($row2['SubID']);
echo "<dd><a href='.$sSub.'>" . $sSub . "</a><br>";
echo "</td></tr>";
}
$count = 1;
}
}
if ($count = 2) {
echo "<td> </td><td> </td></tr>";
} elseif ($count = 3) {
echo "<td> </td></tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
It doesn't seem to close the rows and table correctly... And it is also putting some of the drop down items before it displays the first heading.
If i display it in only one column it is working fine.
