try using $count=0; before the loop (while loop is fine)
then before the end of the loop $count++;
inside the loop if ($count % 4) {
that is where you want it to break and start running the other code
}
so you would have
$table = "<table>";
$counter = 0;
while ($tableset = mysql_fetch_array($result) ) {
$table = "<table>";
if ($counter % 4 == 0) {
$table .= "<tr> <td>FILE 0</td> <td>FILE 1</td> <td>FILE 2</td> <td>FILE 3</td> </tr>";
} else {
$table .= "<tr> <td>FILE 4</td> <td>FILE 5</td> <td>FILE 6</td> <td>FILE 7</td> </tr>";
}
$counter++;
}
$table .= "</table>";
something like that, if this doesnt get the total desired result try playing with the
% 4 == 0 to
like == 1 or 2, see if that gets a desired result. please please this is some psudo
code I threw
together you might need to tweek.
