my loop is still causing problems...
it supposed to find the half mark and then put half on one side and half on the other but it just puts 1 on one side and 3 on the other.
here's my code.

$sql1 = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM table') or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
$numrows = mysql_num_rows($sql1);
$numrows = $numrows / 2;
$numrows = round($numrows);
echo '<div id="div1">';
$i = 0;
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql1)) {
$i++;
if($i == $numrows){
echo"</div>
<div id='div2'><br/><a href='{$row['href']}'>
<img style='border:0;' src='siteimg/{$row['img']}' alt='{$row['alt']}'/>
{$row['url']}
</a>";
}else if($i == 1){
echo "<br/><a href='{$row['href']}'>
<img style='border:0;' src='siteimg/{$row['img']}' alt='{$row['alt']}'/>
{$row['url']}
</a>";
}else {
echo "<br/><br/><a href='{$row['href']}'>
<img style='border:0;' src='siteimg/{$row['img']}' alt='{$row['alt']}'/>
{$row['url']}
</a>";
}
}
echo'</div>';

so it should do something like

Code: [Select]

<div id='1'>
<br/><a href='site1.php'>
<img style='border:0;' src='siteimg/site1.jpg' alt='site1'/>
site1.com
</a></div>
<br/><br/><a href='site2.php'>
<img style='border:0;' src='siteimg/site2.jpg' alt='site2'/>
site2.com
</a><div id='div2'><br/><a href='site3.php'>
<img style='border:0;' src='siteimg/site3.jpg' alt='site3'/>
site3.com
</a><br/><br/><a href='site4.php'>
<img style='border:0;' src='siteimg/site4.jpg' alt='site4'/>
site4.com
</a></div>
however it does something like this

Code: [Select]

<div id='1'>
<br/><a href='site1.php'>
<img style='border:0;' src='siteimg/site1.jpg' alt='site1'/>
site1.com
</a></div>
<div id='div2'><br/><a href='site2.php'>
<img style='border:0;' src='siteimg/site2.jpg' alt='site2'/>
site2.com
</a><br/><br/><a href='site3.php'>
<img style='border:0;' src='siteimg/site3.jpg' alt='site3'/>
site3.com
</a><br/><br/><a href='site4.php'>
<img style='border:0;' src='siteimg/site4.jpg' alt='site4'/>
site4.com
</a></div>what is wrong with my loop

the num_row function wont work if you dont select a database

Code: [Select]

$link = mysql_connect("localhost", "mysql_user", "mysql_password");
mysql_select_db("database", $link);

$i will only ever equal $numrows once!

[rarebit]

Here's food for thought!

Code: [Select]

for($i=0;$i<10;$i++)
{
echo (($i % 2) == 0) ? 'foo' : 'bar';
}

mysql_select_db("database", $link);

I have connected to the database.

$i will only ever equal $numrows once!

that's what I want....

[nathanmaxsonadil]

I did a quick and dirty fix by making $i -1 but is there a better fix than that?
