PHP help . HTACCESS FILE?

  • i have a page home.php and i im trying to displays records in a table but it never works except i create the table inside the php code(<php? echo "<table">; echo "<tr><td>"; echo $name") but i dont like it this way its too stressful repeating the echo all the way , i want to display the records like this <table><tr><td><? echo $name; ?></td</tr></table>. I read some article online about creating .htaccess and making some changes to your http.conf files but i dnt understand any. I really need your help you guyz on what to do. Im using dreamweaver cs3 and wamp5 for my site, hope this is enough for you guyz, thanks for your help.

  • Answer:

    you need to close down the php before starting the table, and reopen it after, like this: ?> <table><tr><td><? echo $name; ?></td</tr></table> <?php

The above poster is correct, and as a side note .htaccess files are for the Apache webserver and don't relate to php code directly.

well if im correct you want a table to appear with various rows. you should be fetching the info from the database so what you would want to do is run a query to fetch the info and create a loop so the info can be displayed $query = "SELECT * FROM example"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); echo "<table>"; while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo "<tr><td>'$row['column1'] '</td><td>'. $row['column2']'</tr>"; } echo "</table>";

<?php ... ?> is parsed by the "php" before anything else (almost) so that you can intermix it in a "normal" html page provided that the ext is .php and this extension is "enabled" to mean that it must be processed by the php interpreter someway. this means that codes like <html> <head><title><?php get_title(); ?></title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=<?php get_charset(); ?>" /> </head> <body> <!-- <?php get_comment(); ?> --> </body></html> is perfectly working; in particular note that get_charset() is inside a "string" and get_comment() output is put into a html comment! so you can as well write things like <table> <tr> <td> <?php echo $name; ?> </td></tr></table> of course, for just one "name", otherwise you have to generate <td> from inside php, like <table><tr> <?php foreach($name_array as $name) { echo "<td>$name</td>"; } ?> </tr></table> so to say. .htaccess could be used to override the conf option that tells the server to understand only the tag <?php or rather also the shortest form <? but no harm if you write <?php instead of simply <? and live that option as it is

Be careful of Hippy's answer, lots of errors there (both HTML and PHP). He has the right idea, but he has more than one syntax error. .htaccess is for securing directories and subdirectories, it has nothing to do with PHP or HTML.
