    Hi Mate,

    Im having problem displaying data from database using loop.

    i need to put all even numbers to the left and odd numbers to the right.

    so if i have one page it should display 2,1,4,3 instead of 1,2,3,4 and so on..

    attached is the output i want to come up.

    Cheers!

    Something like this in your loop will do the trick:

    if ($number % 2 == 0) {
      echo "<span class='pull-left'>$number</span>";
    }
    PHP:
    You will need to work with layout/CSS for yourself, but hope you get the main idea.

    Following could ve one solution to your problem.
    
    <html>
    <body>
    <?php
    $array=[1,2,3,4,5];
    echo '<div style="position: absolute;left: 2px; width: 250px;">';
    foreach($array as $value)
    {
    if($value%2==0)
    echo $value.'</br>';
    }
    echo '</div>';
    
    echo '<div style="position: absolute;left: 255px; width: 250px;">';
    foreach($array as $value)
    {
    if($value%2!=0)
    echo $value.'</br>';
    }
    echo '</div>';
    ?>
    </html>
    
    Code (markup):
    you can retrieve the even and odd values directly from database :
    here is the query:
    SELECT values FROM table where values %2=0;

    Output them in normal order in DIV with a wrapping DIV.

    <div class="reversed"><div>1</div><div>2</div><div>3</div><div>4</div></div>

    .reversed { position:relative; overflow:hidden; } /* make sure width is reported, wrap floats */
    .reversed div { float:right; width:50%; }

    done. You don't even need fancy logic server-side.

    Flex-box's row-reverse could also fix this, or the DIR attribute in the markup could also be used.

    <div dir="rtl"><div>12</div><div>34</div></div>

    Though beware UTF-8 encoding screws with that, so under UTF-8 use the reverse direction character instead of DIR... I forget offhand what character that is.

    -- edit -- forget that last part about rtl/ltr. I can't seem to get that working here which isn't ENTIRELY surprising. Bidirectional language support really shouldn't be used for this case anyways.
