I am rather new to php and adding code php code to html. I wrote a php, which worked with no problem. After I added some html along with some css styles, it hasn't worked. Will styles interfere with this in anyway? I have looked over my code more than enough times and it looks a ok to me. I have narrowed it down to this small section. Did I do this wrong?
Code: Select all
<table style="border">
<tr>
<td>
<?php
print "<table style="products">\n";
while ( $a_row = mysql_fetch_row( $record ) ) {
print "<tr>\n";
foreach ( $a_row as $field )
print "\t<td style="padding">$field</td>\n";
print "</tr>\n";
}
print "</table>\n";
mysql_close( $link );
?>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
The only thing that is different is from my first script is the table that surrounds everything and the styles. Thanks for your help.

Your problem is trying to print out a double quote around the style names. Since you're using double quotes to contain the argument for the print command, you need to put a backslash in front of any double quote you actually want to output:
Code: Select all
<?php
print "<table style="products">\n";
while ( $a_row = mysql_fetch_row( $record ) ) {
print "<tr>\n";
foreach ( $a_row as $field )
print "\t<td style="padding">$field</td>\n";
print "</tr>\n";
}
print "</table>\n";
mysql_close( $link );
?>
See the section of the PHP manual on
string data types for more info.
No good...

When you are trying to apply a CSS class to an element, as you are, you should be using the class attribute instead of the style attribute. Try:
Code: Select all
<?php
print "<table class="products">\n";
while ($a_row = mysql_fetch_row($record)) {
print "<tr>\n";
foreach ($a_row as $field) {
print "\t<td class="padding">$field</td>\n";
}
print "</tr>\n";
}
print "</table>\n";
mysql_close($link);
?>
So instead of style="products" and style="padding" you have class="products" and class="padding".

Good catch, Mac! I hadn't noticed that. That's why you're the Admin and I'm just a Developer
