I cant seem to figure out how to implement any examples I found online of how to us a counter so that ever 3rd echo of " $row['item']" has a div in between it.
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table")
while($row = mysql_fetch_array( $result )) {
echo $row['item'] ;
}
When you want to do something every x loops, I find the easiest method is to use a modulo/modulus operator:
for($i=0;$i<20;$i++)
{
if($i%3==0)
{
echo "This is the third time round...";
}
}
you can easily implement this into a loop while fetching rows from the database.
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table")
$i=0;
while($row = mysql_fetch_array( $result ))
{
echo $row['item'] ;
if($i%3==0)
{
echo "Do your DIV stuff here...";
}
$i++;
}
Try
$result = mysql_query("select * from table")
$i=0;
while($row = mysql_fetch_array( $result ))
{
echo $row['item'] ;
if($i%3==0)
{
echo "<div>Your div content</div>";
}
$i++;
}
I would also suggest to go through for/while/foreach loop as well
