i understand exactly what you mean, but I can't figure out how to impliment it. How can I repeat the element 3 times, then go to the next row.
If I repeat the code, it gives me 3 of the same element before jumping to the next row...It isn't the html I have an issue with it is getting the php to output correctly...
At a total loss...I know I have seen it before.

Hey and if your bored...I don't know why I am getting an unexpected T_ELSE in line 33. I don't see what I missed...
PHP Code:<?
include "connect.php";
include "admin/variables.php";
print "<body link=$link>";
print "<body vlink=$vlink>";
print "<body bgcolor=$bgcolor>";
if(!isset($_GET['EntryID'])) { ?>
<? $piece="SELECT * FROM PIECES where EntryID='$EntryID'"; ?>
<table style="text-align: center; margin: auto; width: 75%;">
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<? $piecequery=mysql_query($piece) or die("It died"); ?>
<? while($pq=mysql_fetch_array($piecequery)) { ?>
<font face="arial" size="5"><b><? echo($pg['name']); ?>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><img src="<? echo($pq['img2']); ?>"></td>
<td valign='top' align='left'><? echo($pq['largetext']); ?>
</td>
</tr>
<? } ?>
</table>
<? } ?>
<?
else if(!isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$rowselect="Select * FROM PIECES order by numa LIMIT 0,12"; ?>
<table style="text-align: center; margin: auto; width: 90%;">
<tr>
<th colspan="3">Identification Guide</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<? $rowquery = mysql_query($rowselect) or die("diesroot"); ?>
<? while($row = mysql_fetch_array($rowquery)) { ?>
<td style="color: black;">
<p>
<a href="index.php?EntryID=<? echo($row['EntryID']); ?>">
<img src="<? echo($row['img1']); ?>" alt="<? echo $row[name] ?>">
</a>
</p>
<p>
<? echo($row['numa'] . '-' . $row['numb'] . '-' . $row['numc']); ?>
</p>
<p>
<? echo($row['shorttext']); ?>
</p>
</td>
</tr>
<? } ?>
</table>
<? } ?>

Oh. Every 3?
Try this-- untested--May act kinda weird if you don't have a number of items divisible by three, like 4 items or 5, etc.PHP Code:<table><tr>
<?php while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($rowquery)) { ?>
<td>
<p>stuff <?php echo $row['data']; ?> more stuff</p>
</td>
<?php
$three++;
if ($three % 3 == 0) echo "</tr>\n<tr>";
}
?>
</tr></table>
To explain:
The basic idea here is in these two lines:
$three++;
if ($three % 3 == 0) echo "</tr>\n<tr>";
First, the variable "three" is just counting the number of entries already passed into the table.
If the remainder of $three/3 is 0 (to check if it's 3, 6, 9...), then echo end row (the first row is opened either in the last loop of 3 or at the very start), a line break (so the html looks right; you can play with this more), then a start row tag (the tag is closed either in the next loop or after the loops at the end.)

Great, thanks, I'll let you know what I come up with, but this makes sense.
