Display multiple images in the row in PHP

Hi Experts:

I have the php code which works fine in displaying a image (picture) and data for each row in the table.  Sometimes there are more than 1 images in a row.  Currently it is displaying only one image (picture).

How can we modify the code to display more than 1 image (if present) in the row?

<?php
// list.php

$field = $_GET["f"];
$q = $_GET["q"];
$where = "";
if (!empty($q)) {
    $where = " WHERE `".addslashes($field)."` LIKE '%" . addslashes($q) . "%'";
}

// Connects to your Database 
$dbh=mysql_connect("jackrealestatecom.jillmysql.com", "jack", "Cher!f2015") or die(mysql_error()) ; 
mysql_select_db("properties") or die(mysql_error()) ; 
//count number of records
$query = "SELECT * FROM listings".$where;
//echo $query;
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
$num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result);

if(mysql_num_rows($result) == 0) {
  echo "No results were found.";
}

//number you want to display per page
$page_rows=10;

//This tells us the page number of last page
$last=ceil($num_rows/$page_rows);

//determine results
//This checks to see if there's a page number.  If not, it will set it to page 1.
if(isset($_GET['pagenum'])) {
  $pagenum=$_GET['pagenum'];
}
else{
  $pagenum=1;
}

$pagenum=(int)$pagenum;
if ($pagenum>$last)
{
$pagenum=$last;
}

if ($pagenum<1)
{
$pagenum=1;
}

$offset=($pagenum - 1) * $page_rows;

$i=1;

//Retrieves data from MySQL 
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM listings $where ORDER BY id LIMIT $offset, $page_rows") or die(mysql_error());  //Puts it into an array 
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
  {
  //Outputs the image and other data
$id=$row['id'];
$image=$row['image'];
$name=$row['name'];
$location=$row['location'];
$description=$row['description'];
$area=$row['area'];
$type=$row['type'];


echo "<table border='1' BORDERCOLOR='#7E2217' cellpadding='10' width='100%' style='table-layout:fixed'><col width='38' /><col width='200' />" ; 
echo "<tr align=left><th colspan='2'><font color='black'> <b>". $name ."</b><br>". $location. "</font></th></tr>";

}
echo "<p align='left'>Page</p>";
for ($i=1; $i<=$last; $i++)
{
if (($i=="1") && ($i==$pagenum))
{

Hi Kim:

I think we need to do only 2 and 3.  Description here is not the description of the image(s).  Can you help please?

Thanks.

So there are multiple images for some rows but only one description per row?

How are the additional images stored in the database? Is there a separate record in the database for each image, or for each row?

Yes that's correct.  

I am using html/php form to submit data and multiple images for each row.  The form accepts multiple images but when displayed in the table, only one image is displayed.

Here is the code for the form:

This form does not accept multiple images. I'm familiar with your other question about how to modify the form to accept multiple images. Adding the multiple attribute will allow the form to upload multiple images, but the processing routine will have to be modified to process multiple images too. How do you plan to store the additional images?

Do you already have some rows that have multiple images? How are they being displayed now? Are they being displayed on multiple rows? This would indicate that there is a separate row in the database for each image. If so, we need to modify the database query to group them.

This is why this is too complicated for this forum. There are too many variables that need to be ironed out.

Once necessary step will be to get off the MySQL extension ASAP.  This article explains why and gives examples showing how.

Hi Amita:

Here is the SQl file.  I am not sure if this is what you are looking for.

Thanks.

None of these appear to have multiple images. So it's impossible to determine how they would be collected or delivered.
