Re: [Dave] Products pages - "list" page results setup horizontally

Hi again, Dave!

I started dropping php code into the html mock up of that we've talked about & I'm getting some error messages. I wanted you to review them before I progress any further. There's obviously something I'm not understanding here...

I've uploaded photos & created a record with CMS Builder. Then changed the html mock up to a php file & added the code snippet about the header. Then I dropped in my Event Title & Event Description php code snippets.. This is what I've got:

Thanks again for all your time,
.james.

No problem, can you attach the photos2.php file to this post?

Hi James,

I didn't see any errors in the attached file or on the page anymore?

What you want to do is start with the code from the code generator that displays images and then copy and paste the tags so they repeat that table cell in your code where you want the images to appear.

Hope that helps!

Hey again Dave!

Okay... I've got the main photos page functioning correctly & I'm ready to drop in the PHP snippet you noted above that will display my thumbnails in 3-column tr fashion. However, I'm confused about where to place the code: <?php $maxCols=3; if (@++$count % $maxCols == 0): ?></tr><tr><?php endif; ?> within my existing code.

Could you take a look and advise?

Thanks!

Hi James,

First you want to put your images in a table. The code will look something like this (you'll need to fill in the gaps):

<table border="1" >
<tr>
<?php foreach ($uploads ... ?>
<td>
<?php ?>
</td>
<?php endforeach ?>
</tr>
</table>


So what that should do is create a new table cell for each image and make them stretch horizontally. Once that's working you add that code after the </td> but before the endforeach and it will insert a </tr><tr> ever 3 columns.

Hope that helps!
