Repeater, Datalist in ASP vs PHP

Question

Can anyone give me some suggestion please. In ASP we can use datalist and repeater control to repeate the rows but how can we do similar in php. I am designing a private message page for the similair as inbox page. Please can anyone help me.

Answer 1

Take a look at Smarty. It has {foreach} construct.

Answer 2

Use a loop construct. For example:

<?php foreach ($rows as $row): ?>
  <tr>
    <td><?php echo htmlspecialchars($row['id']); ?></td>
    <td><?php echo htmlspecialchars($row['name']); ?></td>
    <td><?php echo htmlspecialchars($row['email']); ?></td>
  </tr>
<?php endforeach; ?>
