[FX.php List] PHP Question

[Bob Patin]

While I've not done it, I know how I would go about this:

$counter = 4;
foreach($foundSet['data'] as $key=>$foundData){
	if ($counter = 4){
		$counter = 0;
		?>
		<?php
		<tr> //create a new table row
		?>
	<?php
	}
	if ($counter < 4){
	?>	
		<td width=33%>... create your new column, specify column width here  
as well (I assume it'd be 33%)
		$counter = $counter + 1;
	<?php
	}
}
?>

This might need tweaking; I just dashed this off, but I think this  
would work fine...

Let me know how it goes...

So essentially you'd have a loop within a loop; the main loop is  
looping through the found set. The internal loop creates columns (3  
at the max for your example), then exits the loop to start a new row.
