simple php table loop

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hi all,

I've the following code

<?php // Create category options
$query = "SELECT * FROM categories ORDER BY category ASC";
$result = mysql_query ($query);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($result, MYSQL_NUM)) {
echo "<input type="checkbox" name="types[]" value="$row[1]">$row[1]n";
}
?>

This lists out up to 15 checkboxes, but can increase or decrease if more are added/removed. At present this simply produces a list.
How can I alter the above to produce a nice table with say 5 checkboxes per row?
