You could make a skin/templet:

Example:

function table_header(){
    $html = "<table><tr>"
    $html .= "<td>Col 1</td><td>Col 2</td><td>Col 3</td>";
    $html .= "<td>Col 4</td><td>Col 5</td><td>col 6</td>"
    $html .= "<td>col 7</td>";
    $html .= "</tr>";
    
    return $html;
}

function row($var1="",$var2="",$var3="",$var4="",$var5="",$var6="",$var7=""){
    $html = "<tr>"
    $html .= "<td>" . $var1 . "</td><td>" . $var2 . "</td><td>" . $var3 . "</td>";
    $html .= "<td>" . $var4 . "</td><td>" . $var5 . "</td><td>" . $var6 . "</td>."
    $html .= "<td>" . $var7 . "</td>"
    $html .= "</tr>";

    return $html;
}


# call...
echo table_header();

loop
    echo row($1var, $2var, $3var, $4var, $5var, $6var, $7var);
end loop

echo "</table>"; 

Is that what your looking for ?

If you want to skip a col in a row you wold just do...

    echo row($1var, " ", $3var, $4var, $5var, " ", $7var); 

And it will add nothing to that cell... you could just use a double quote but the some browser dont like compleatly empty cells so the & n b s p ;works best (im my opion).

thats working to a point but it seems to be adding a row at the top every time the script is run, you see a new dot at the left top hand side on every incoming , so my rows of data are filling up but moving down each time, any idea whats causing this?

[AWC_Joe]

Any chance you can post the code your using to file the table with ?

or

Explan in alitlte more detail what you want to do, where your gettin the info form or if your filling the table form a loop.

You said you need a table with 7 headers and 5 incoming vars... is that gonna be 5 rows which will span 7 columns ?
