    <p>I'm trying to get a value to be inserted into a table on a webpage if the value equals $i.</p> <p>$i starts at a number and decreases every loop. i can get it to work but it outputs multiple lines for each $i equivalent to the results in the table</p> <p>I've reworked the code using everyones feedback to get this.</p> <pre><code>Echo "&lt;tr&gt;&lt;th colspan='3'&gt;&lt;center&gt;$rackname&lt;/th&gt; &lt;/tr&gt;" ; for ($i=$RUtotal; $i &gt; 0; $i--) { echo" &lt;tr class='rackbg'&gt;&lt;td class='i'&gt;&lt;center&gt;$i&lt;/td&gt;" ; $sql1 = "SELECT racks.rackID, racks.rackname, devices.deviceID, devices.deviceName, racks.rackRU, devices.deviceRU, devices.RUcount FROM racks LEFT JOIN devices ON racks.rackID = devices.rackID WHERE devices.rackID = '$rackID'"; $query1 = mysql_query($sql1); while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query1)) { $deviceru = $row['deviceRU']; $deviceID = $row['deviceID']; $device = $row['deviceName']; $deviceRUC = $row['RUcount']; if ($deviceru == $i) { echo '&lt;td class="device" rowspan='.$deviceRUC.'&gt;&lt;a onclick=window.location="/devices.php?id='.$deviceID.'"&gt;'.$device.'&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td rowspan='.$deviceRUC.'&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;'; } else { ; } } } Echo "&lt;tr class='rackb'&gt;&lt;th colspan='3'&gt;a&lt;/th&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; " ; </code></pre> <p>This works to a degree (picture1) but when i add echo "" to the else statement it displays all wrong. (picture 2)</p> <p>Any help would be greatly appreciated</p> <p>Picture1 - <a href="http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/263/examplewq.png/" rel="nofollow">http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/263/examplewq.png/</a></p> <p>Picture2 - <a href="http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/269/example2jp.png/" rel="nofollow">http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/269/example2jp.png/</a></p>
