Mysql to array not working - php

Question

Hey Everyone i got a little problem! I know its something simple but for some reason i can not figure it out (arrays are kicking my butt!)
I want the results to display like the following...
title 1 | title 2 | title 3 | title 4 |
Title 5 | title 6 | title 7 | title 8 |
But for some reason when the code runs it shows as the following...
t | i |
It spells out the title 1 and not the whole word for each cell of the table.
What am i doing wrong?
$result = mysqli_query($con,"SELECT title FROM donuts");
$rows = 2;
$cols = ceil(count($result)/$rows);
$row = mysqli_fetch_array($result);
echo $result=$row['title'];
echo "<table border='1'>";
$i=0;
for($tr=1;$tr<=$rows;$tr++) {
echo "<tr>";
for($td=1;$td<=$cols;$td++) {
if (isset($result[$i])) {
echo "<td>".$result[$i]."</td>"; $i++;
}
}
echo "</tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
Note the table has no limit on how many columns there are just rows.

Answer 1

You have to loop through the results. Something like this:
// $numrows = mysqli_num_rows($result); // Count rows if you want to know
while( $row = mysqli_fetch_array($result, MYSQLI_ASSOC) ) { // Loop through rows
echo "<tr>";
foreach($row as $key => $value) { // Loop through columns
echo "<td>" . $value . "</td>";
}
echo "</tr>";
}
At the moment you loop through each character of a column.

You might want to try it like this:
$result = mysqli_query($con, "SELECT title FROM donuts");
echo '<table>';
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result, MYSQLI_ASSOC))
{
echo '<tr>';
foreach ($row as $cell)
{
echo '<td>' . $cell . '</td>';
}
echo '</tr>';
}
echo '</table>';

Here is your problem:
echo $result=$row['title'];
and then you loop through this with the code:
$i=0; for($tr=1;$tr<=$rows;$tr++)
{ echo "<tr>";
for($td=1;$td<=$cols;$td++)
{
if (isset($result[$i])) {
**echo "<td>".$result[$i]."</td>"; $i++;**
Thus you loop through a string outputting each character in that string.
