    <p>I'm trying to make a facebook wall-alike php script.</p> <p>It loads the posts stuff, photo url and user stuff like username and user id from my MySQL database. It also checks if the post is just a comment to another post (parentof). I can present all the original posts with pictures with a simple do-while using tags .</p> <p>But how could I present the comments under every post? I guess with another do-loop, but how?</p> <p>Here is my code:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php require_once "config.php"; $result = mysql_query('SET NAMES utf8'); $result = mysql_query('SET CHARACTER SET utf8'); $wallhaku = mysql_query("SELECT `wall`.`post_id`, `wall`.`parentof`, `wall`.`sentby`, `wall`.`text`, `wall`.`image_url`, `users`.`username`, `users`.`photopath`, `users`.`name`, `users`.`member_id` FROM `wall` LEFT JOIN `users` ON `wall`.`sentby` = `users`.`member_id` WHERE parentof=0 ORDER BY post_id DESC") or die (mysql_error()); $row_wallhaku = mysql_fetch_array($wallhaku); &lt;table width="800" height="120" border="0" cellpadding="10"&gt; &lt;?php $i=0; $numberpage=1; do { $wallid = $row_wallhaku['post_id']; $parenthaku = mysql_query("SELECT post_id, parentof FROM wall WHERE parentof=$wallid") or die (mysql_error()); $row_parenthaku = mysql_num_rows($parenthaku); &lt;td width="120" align="left"&gt; &lt;img src=&lt;?php echo $row_wallhaku['photopath']; ?&gt; height= "100" width="100"&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td width="600" align="left"&gt; &lt;a href="member.php?id=&lt;?php echo $row_wallhaku['member_id']; ?&gt;"&gt;&lt;?php echo $row_wallhaku['name']?&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;?php echo $row_wallhaku['text']; if($row_wallhaku['image_url']=="0") { &lt;p align="right"&gt;&lt;?php echo $row_parenthaku ?&gt; kommenttia.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="post.php?id=&lt;?php echo $row_wallhaku['post_id']; ?&gt;"&gt;Lue, kommentoi&lt;/a&gt; &lt;?php } ?&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;?php $i++; if($i%$numberpage==0) echo "&lt;/tr&gt;"; if($row_wallhaku['image_url']!="0") { &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td width='800' colspan='2' align='center'&gt; &lt;a href="post.php?id=&lt;?php echo $row_wallhaku['post_id']; ?&gt;"&gt;&lt;img src=&lt;?php echo $row_wallhaku['image_url']; ?&gt; height="180"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;p align="right"&gt;&lt;?php echo $row_parenthaku ?&gt; kommenttia.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="post.php?id=&lt;?php echo $row_wallhaku['post_id']; ?&gt;"&gt;Lue, kommentoi&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;?php } &lt;/table&gt; </code></pre>

    1. COPlaced the code there for you. To insert code, you can indent 4 spaces, or use the {} icon on the editor, or use backticks (` or alt+096). Not a solution, but have you tried with [disqus](http://disqus.com) ? It's the same used on the jquery api site, to give a practical example; that would save you a lot of work!

    2. COSo the code just checks the posts row by row and check if it has a picture attached. If it foes, it will post a picture under the post.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
