Foreach loop output need help

[988]

foreach ($samples AS $sample)

Right now it will output..

sample
sample
sample
sample
sample
sample



What I want is the output to be..

sample sample sample
sample sample sample
sample sample sample

Anybody know how I go about doing this?

A different query? perhaps.. Need help...

Thank you..

I'm not totally sure what you are trying to achieve, you want a carriage return every three elements right ?
Then you would need an incremented counter in your loop along these lines (using modulus)

$counter=1;
foreach ($samples AS $sample) {
...

	$counter++;

	if ( ($counter % 3) == 0) { // break
		echo "<br />";
	}
}

Try this. The widths decide how many show per row.

<?php
$output = '<div style="width:330px;clear:both;overflow:hidden;">';
foreach ($samples AS $sample) {
	$output .= '
		<div style="width:100px;margin-left:10px;float:left;clear:none;">
			'.$sample.'
		</div>
	';
}
$output .= '</div>';
?>

best response so far, use auto increment

How is that better? It is slower and mine offers the ability to have the number of columns you want without additional coding.

Thank you all for the help, I decided to go with lampninjaman's idea.

the very simple code = { float:left; width: 33% }

Again.. Thank You.
