tabular pagination
Posted: Tue Sep 30, 2008 9:01 pm
hi,
im a php newbie and i need some help with tabluar pagination. i want to display the results of my query in a table. i actually came up with this code:
this is a part of the greater code. it works, but not quite well. the problem is that the resulting table is not uniform. each cell in the table is just as wide as it needs to be to fit the contents of $job_title for example.
what can i do to create a uniform table where the contents of each cell would have to wrap to fit the table cell?
can anyone also help me with pagination?
examples, suggestions and resources would be kindly appreciated.
thankx

Code: Select all
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
$job_id = $row['job_id'];
$job_title = $row['job_title'];
$post_date = $row['post_date'];
echo "<table border='1'>";
echo "<TR>";
echo "<TH> </TH><TH><STRONG>Job Title</STRONG></TH><TH><STRONG>Post date</STRONG></TH>";
echo "</TR>";
//the link of the job title is given, when the user clicks on it, we issue another querry
echo "<TR>";
echo "<TD>";
echo "<form METHOD='POST' ACTION='deletejob.php>";///check box to delete job from database
echo "<input type='CHECKBOX' name='job_id'>";
echo "<input type='submit' value='delete'>";
echo "</form></TD>";
echo "<TD><a href=jobinfo.php?job_id=".$job_id.">$job_title</a></TD>";
echo "<TD>$post_date</TD>";
echo "</TR>";
echo "</table>";
}
