With a simple loop I can create the data in columns in a table. It is a
table of products, each product's features, etc. I am not too worried
about the client changing the layout at a later date as that would
likely be driven by me...maybe. :) The code which makes the multiple
columns of data is right simple and could easily be replaced.
if(0 == $columnCount){
echo "<tr>";
}
...do table stuff...
if(0 == $columnCount){
$columnCount++; // increment to 1
else {
echo "</tr>\n";
$columnCount--; // decrement to 0
}
The following is just another way (not using mod):
<?php
echo("<table><tr>");
for ($i = 0; $i <= 9; $i++)
{
echo("<td>$i</td>");
if($i & 1)
{
echo("<tr></tr>");
}
}
echo("</tr><table>");
?>
Whenever I need a 1 or 0, I use ($i & 1).
So, semantics freaks ;), the entire site is a CSS thing of beauty with a
LAMP back-end, and there is only one spot where I have used a small
table that I need to get rid of. This product table is justified as a
table.
Yep, nothing wrong with using tables to show column data -- that's
what tables are for.
