PHP - Columns Rather Than Rows?

Hi guys, is there anyway to process this $result from a mysql query inside PHP so that the data below will be formatted to a pivot-like table? The number of rows and columns of the output 'table' will be indefinite. Thanks so much!

Data:
ID   Row   Col   Name
1   1   A   A1
2   2   A   A2
3   3   A   A3
4   1   B   B1
5   2   B   B2
6   3   B   B3
7   1   C   C1
8   2   C   C2
9   3   C   C3


Results:
A1(1)   A2(2)   A3(3)
B1(4)   B2(5)   B3(6)
C1(7)   C2(   C3(9)

I want to echo out a few subcategories per main category.
It should be a maximum of 20 entries per column

At this stage I have the following... It echo's the results out in 4 columns and not what I want.
Any suggestions?

$query = "SELECT 
adsubcat.name AS subname, adsubcat.linkname AS sublink, adcat.clinkname AS clink
FROM adsubcat 
JOIN adcat ON adcat.id=adsubcat.catid
WHERE adsubcat.catid='$catid' ORDER BY adsubcat.name ASC";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {

$count = 0;

print '<table style="text-align:left;margin-left:0px;width:943px;">'."\n";
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
$gal = '<a href="'.$root.'/'.$row['clink'].'/'.$row['sublink'].'">'.$row['subname'].'</a>';
if ($count == 0){
print '<tr>';
}
++$count;
print '<td>'.$gal.'</td>';
if ($count == 4){
$count = 0;
print'</tr>'."\n";
}
}
print'</table>'."\n";
}

what Im basically trying to do is just like a phpmyadmin function... you select rows you want to update with a checkbox and then it takes you to a page where the rows that are clicked are shown in forms so that you can view and edit info in them... and then have 1 submit button to update them all at once.

I have 2 queries that I want to join together to make one row  

Is there a way to echo the results of a query as separate columns as opposed to one under the other?

I have a page that displays a list of retail locations (est. 100-150 locations).

I have my layout setup to fit 3 columns side by side. Ex:

<div class="col"></div>
<div class="col"></div>
<div class="col"></div>

.. with the "col" class having a specific width and float: left.

Basically, I want to print out the locations in the column and when a column reaches a certain number of locations, it closes that div and starts a new one and continues printing the rest of the locations.

How would I go about making sure that once a column has reached a certain number of locations, it closes the div and starts the new one?

I'm working on a site where I've implemented a simple back end wysiwyg editor for content on a page. Then on the public page I run a php query to pull that content and display it. But doing this cancels out the css I have been using to split content into two columns. Is there a way to do this in php, or is there a way to circumvent the problem?  ( also tried echoing the entire css style along with the query result - that didn't work either)

The <p id='container_sub'> is what is split into two columns. I tried it outside of the query, and inside the query around where I echo results. Neither worked.
Here's the basic php code, and further down the css that makes two columns:
Code: [Select]
<?php

$pageid = '2';
  
// Formulate Query
// This is the best way to perform an SQL query
// For more examples, see mysql_real_escape_string()
$query = sprintf("SELECT content FROM tbl_pages WHERE page_id='%s'",
     mysql_real_escape_string($pageid));

// Perform Query
$result = mysql_query($query);

// Check result
// This shows the actual query sent to MySQL, and the error. Useful for debugging.
if (!$result) {
    $message  = 'Invalid query: ' . mysql_error() . "\n";
    $message .= 'Whole query: ' . $query;
    die($message);
}

// Use result
// Attempting to print $result won't allow access to information in the resource
// One of the mysql result functions must be used
// See also mysql_result(), mysql_fetch_array(), mysql_fetch_row(), etc.
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
    echo "<p id='container_sub'>".$row['content']."</p>";

}

// Free the resources associated with the result set
// This is done automatically at the end of the script
mysql_free_result($result);
      
?>

The css....
Code: [Select]
#container_sub {-moz-column-count: 2;
-moz-column-gap: 25px;
-webkit-column-count: 2;
-webkit-column-gap: 20px;
column-count: 2;
column-gap: 20px;}

#container_sub2 {-moz-column-count: 2;
-moz-column-gap: 25px;
-webkit-column-count: 2;
-webkit-column-gap: 20px;
column-count: 2;
column-gap: 20px;}

I am editing code to get sku numbers, for now it just prints as below:

SKU: 123
SKU: 322
SKU: 444
SKU: 555
SKU: 666

I want to put them in columns so it prints as:

SKU: 123      SKU: 322     SKU: 444       SKU: 555
SKU: 666      etc.              etc.

So it is devided into 4 columns.

The code that controls is:
Code: [Select]
<?php if (is_array($order->products)) {
                            $context = array(
                              'revision' => 'formatted',
                              'type' => 'order_product',
                              'subject' => array(
                                'order' => $order,
                              ),
                            );
                            foreach ($order->products as $product) {
                              $price_info = array(
                                'price' => $product->price,
                                'qty' => $product->qty,
                              );
                              $context['subject']['order_product'] = $product;
                              $context['subject']['node'] = node_load($product->nid);
                              ?>
                      <?php echo $product->model; ?><br />
                             
                          <?php }
                              }?>

2nd Part of my question, When i call for a team my link is test.php?id=(team id)
Is there a way to bring up multiple teams at the same time?

i have this code but it shows the password of the user to...
Code: [Select]
<?php
$database="dynamicg_sites";
mysql_connect ("localhost","dynamicg_sites","boom123");
@mysql_select_db($database) or die( "Unable to select database");
$result = mysql_query( "SELECT * FROM sites order by votes DESC" )
or die("SELECT Error: ".mysql_error());
$num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result);
print "<br>\n";
print "There are $num_rows News Articles";
print "<br>\n";
print "<table width=457 border=0>\n";
print "<tr>\n";
print "<td>\n";
echo "Title:";
print "</td>\n";
print "<td>\n";
echo "Description:";
print "</td>\n";
print "<td>\n";
echo "Votes:";
print "</td>\n";
print "</tr>\n";
while ($get_info = mysql_fetch_row($result)){
print "<tr>\n";
foreach ($get_info as $field)
print "\t<td><font face=arial size=2/>$field</font></td>\n";
print "</tr>\n";
}
print "</table>\n";
print "<br />\n";

Hi, I have a piece of code which I trying to search two columns but I just cant get it to work.  Instead it just dumps around 30 entries onto the page.  Can anyone point me in the direction of how to search two columns?

Code: [Select]
$query = "SELECT * FROM questions";

if(isset($_GET['question']) && !empty($_GET['notes'] ))
{
/*query the database*/
$question = $_GET['question'];
$notes = $_GET['notes'];
$query .= " WHERE question && notes like '%$question%' LIMIT 0, 10";
}

$result = mysql_query($query);

while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))

{

$question = $row['question'];
$notes = $row['notes'];

echo "$question
$notes  </br>";
}

Hey guys, I have made an array where only the name shows up, but I want the price next to it. I adapted the query, but how do I need to adapt the array? peace
Code: [Select]
<?php

// connect to your database
      
      $DrinkArray=array()   ;
  

      $DrinkResult=mysql_query("SELECT name,price FROM products")or die(mysql_error());

      while($DrinkRow=mysql_fetch_assoc($DrinkResult)){
         $DrinkArray[]=$DrinkRow['name'];

      }

      //check your output with something like this
      foreach($DrinkArray as $value){
         echo $value.'<br />';
      }
?>
