Split a table into three rows - php

Question

I've got a PHP page, some of which is something like this:
if(mysql_num_rows($raw_results) > 0){
echo "<table border='1'>
<tr>
<th>C1</th>
</tr>";
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($raw_results))
{
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>" . $row['C1'] . "</td>";
echo "</tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
How can I change this so the table goes C1 C1 C1?
So if I have the following set of values - 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 - the table returns the following
C1 C1 C1
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
How can I do this?

Answer 1

something like this:
$cpt=1;
echo "<tr>";
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($raw_results))
{
echo "<td>" . $row['C1'] . "</td>";
if ($cpt%3==0)
echo "</tr><tr>";
$cpt++;
}
echo "</tr>";
will create a new row after every 3 result

Answer 2

Define in $N how many cols you want.
$N=3;
$col=0;
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($raw_results))
{
$col++;
if ($col==1) echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>" . $row['C1'] . "</td>";
if ($col==$N)
{
$col=0;
echo "</tr>";
}
}
if ($col>0) //if there is an open <tr>...
echo "</tr>";

Answer 3

if(mysql_num_rows($raw_results) > 0) {
echo "<table border='1'>
<tr><th>C1</th><th>C1</th><th>C1</th></tr>";
$col = 0;
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($raw_results)) {
if ($col == 0) { echo "<tr>"; }
echo "<td>" . $row['C1'] . "</td>";
if ($col == 2) { echo "</tr>"; }
$col = ($col + 1) % 3
}
echo "</table>";
}

Answer 4

This is also Working (little bit short one)
$a=1;
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($raw_results))
{
echo "<td>".$row['c1']."</td>".(($a%3==0)?'</tr><tr>':'');
$a++;
}

Answer 5

Change it to
if(mysql_num_rows($raw_results) > 0){
echo "<table border='1'>
<tr>
<th>C1</th><th>C1</th><th>C1</th>";
$x = 0;
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($raw_results))
{
if ($x % 3 == 0) {
echo "</tr><tr>";
}
echo "<td>" . $row['C1'] . "</td>";
$x++;
}
echo "</table>";
I assume you have just 3 columns and count of your result is submultiple of 3
pay attention to </tr><tr>

Answer 6

No test so it might be some syntax error but you can do something like this:
if(mysql_num_rows($raw_results) > 0){
echo "<table border='1'>
<tr>
<th>C1</th>
<th>C1</th>
<th>C1</th>
</tr><tr>";
$i = 0;
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($raw_results))
{
if ($i == 2) {
$i = 0;
echo "</tr>";
echo "<tr>";
}
echo "<td>" . $row['C1'] . "</td>";
$i++;
}
if ($i > 0) {
echo "</tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
