[PHP] Silly table and php question.

2001-07-12 Thread Johan Vikerskog (ECS)

Hi all.
I know this is a silly question but i dont know how to do it so thats why i am asking.
Be gentle towards me. Im just a stupid swede! ;-)

statement:
I have a table cell in my upper right corner.

I have a small php script which checks wheter my user is online or not. If the user is 
i want to update that cell
with an gif that i made that says online.
How do i update just that cell? Is there a special function in PHP to do that?

I know the question is silly but bare with me.

Well, I guess what you can do is embed the PHP within the table cell and
call an if statement. Like this...


table
   tr
  td

// if the user is online, then display the online image
?php
If ($user = online) {
?

img src=online.gif

// else if the user is offline, display the offline image
?php
}
elseif ($user = offline) {
?

img src=offline.gif

// This is just some error checking
?php
} else {
echo $some_error;
?

?php
}
?

/td
   /tr
/table


Try that, it's simple and short, and it works within the table cell you
would specify. Of course, you may have to alter the code and the code
structure a bit to fit your scheme. If you're new to PHP then stripping away
the comments I placed for you might help to make the code look more clear to
you. Good luck...
