I have read all the post about coding three columns for PHP. However, I can't seem to find any that will allow me to create three column loop. Everything I do either gives me an error or a blank white page. I also need to have a little space between the column loops. Here is what I have so far, can you tell me what I am missing?
table, td, th {
border: 1px solid #000;
text-align: left;
}
table {
border-collapse: initial;
width: 100%;
}
td {
padding: 10px;
width: 5%;
line-height: 2;
}
th {
background-color: grey;
color: white;
padding: 15px;
width: auto;
}
$sql = "SELECT name, email, dropdown, description FROM basic";
$result = $conn->query($sql);
if ($result->num_rows > 0) {
echo "<table>";
$columns=3;
// output data of each row
while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
if ($row > 0 && ($columns) == 3) {
echo "<th>". $row["name"]. "</th><tr> <td>email: ". $row["email"]. "</td><tr> <td>category: " . $row["dropdown"] . "</td><tr><td>Announcement: " . $row["description"] . "</td></tr>";
}
}
echo "</table>";
} else {
echo "0 results";
}
$conn->close();
</div>
