Scaffolding for bootstrap grid with PHP loop & mysqli - php

Question

thanks for taking a look at my question.
I'm trying to get PHP to output bootstrap rows that only contain 2 col-md-6 columns, instead of outputting 1 row with 1 col for each iteration.
Searching here on Stackoverflow I found a solution that makes sense but when I implement it, the HTML that I get makes no sense!
I should be getting this:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6"></div>
<div class="col-md-6"></div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6"></div>
<div class="col-md-6"></div>
</div>
...But I'm getting this:
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6"></div>
<div class="col-md-6"></div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6"></div>
<div class="col-md-6"></div>
</div>
</div>
CODE:
<?php
require_once('somedb.php');
$query = mysqli_query($conn, "SELECT * FROM notyourbusiness");
$rowCount = mysqli_num_rows($query);
$i = 0;
echo '<div class="row">';
if($rowCount > 0){
while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($query)){
?>
<?php echo '<div class="col-md-6">'; ?>
<img src="img/project/<?php echo $row['thumb'] ?>" class="work-thumbnail" width="100">
<h2><?php echo $row["name"]; ?></h2>
<?php echo '</div>'; ?>
<?php
$i++;
if ($i%2 == 0) echo '</div><div class="row">';
} ?>
<?php } ?>
</div>
Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Answer 1

Can you provide us more information? It seems that the first is comming from outside of this php code.

Answer 2

You can try this
<?php
$query = mysqli_query($conn, "SELECT * FROM notyourbusiness");
$rowCount = mysqli_num_rows($query);
$i = 0;
if($rowCount > 0){
while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($query)){
$row_draw = ($i % 2 == 0) ? true : false;
# Start row div
if ($row_draw)
{
print "<div class='row'>";
}
# Print Column
print "<div class='col-md-6'>";
?>
<img src="img/project/<?php echo $row['thumb'] ?>" class="work-thumbnail" width="100">
<a href="javascript:void(0);">
<h2><?php echo $row["name"]; ?></h2>
</a>
<?php
print "</div>";
# End row div
if ($row_draw)
{
print "</div>";
}
$i++;
}
}
?>
