Table in a separate HTML Page Linked to Homepage

[reezvaan]

Hello, I am using phpBB3 at my forum; www.pacvwr.forumstopic.com

I need to setup more than one HTML pages, numbered in sequence, connected to eachother, having this kind of table to list members' vintage cars;



The links as seen in above table when clicked open a new page in the same window which look something like this;



These above images are taken from; http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/newads.php?type=new

I want same setup coded to help me put up cars registered with the Cars Registry Database and the list pages have to be linked on the home page in a category/forum.

Thanks in advance.

Hi!

Well, I tried to make something simillary:

Code:

<style>
.forumline{
background-color: white;
border: 2px #069 solid;
}

th{
background-color: #069;
background-image: url(http://2img.net/i/fa/subsilver/back_title.gif);
color: #FFA34F;
font-size: 11px;
font-weight: 700;
height: 25px;
padding: 2px 3px;
}

.forumline td{
background-color: #EFEFEF;
padding: 2px 3px;
}
</style>

<table class="forumline" width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<th width="250">Picture</th>
<th width="100%">Description</th>
<th width="150">Price</th>
<th width="400">Date/Location</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="top">First line - First column content</td>
<td align="left" valign="top">First line - Second column content</td>
<td align="right" valign="top">First line - Third column content</td>
<td align="right" valign="top">First line - Fourth column content</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="top">Second line - First column content</td>
<td align="left" valign="top">Second line - Second column content</td>
<td align="right" valign="top">Second line - Third column content</td>
<td align="right" valign="top">Second line - Fourth column content</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="top">Third line - First column content</td>
<td align="left" valign="top">Third line - Second column content</td>
<td align="right" valign="top">Third line - Third column content</td>
<td align="right" valign="top">Third line - Fourth column content</td>
</tr>
</table>

^^^Thanks thats great. I surely can modify it to use it. How about the other parts of my question? Actually I am a newbie with the code as well as with the forums.

The parts I now want answered are;

-Need to setup more than one HTML pages, numbered in sequence, connected to eachother, having the kind of table you just coded for me, to list members' vintage cars;

HOW DO I MAKE DYNAMIC THE NUMBER OF ROWS ON A PAGE, OR WILL I HAVE TO DESIGN A TABLE TO FILL A PAGE AND DUPLICATE THAT PAGE WITH AS MANY AS I WANT? IF YES, HOW DO I INTERLINK/SEQUENTIALLY NUMBER THE DUPLICATE PAGES?

-How do I fill in the links in the table coulmns/rows that you just coded for me? Is there a generic code to do that?

-How do I design the secondary page (second pic in OP) to be linked to a field in the Table that you coded for me?

-How do I link the TABLE HTML PAGE to a Category/Forum in Homepage of my forum?

- Hmm, you can just expand the table rows, adding more <tr> elements before </table>:

Code:

<tr>
<td align="center" valign="top">Fourth line - First column content</td>
<td align="left" valign="top">Fourth line - Second column content</td>
<td align="right" valign="top">Fourth line - Third column content</td>
<td align="right" valign="top">Fourth line - Fourth column content</td>
</tr>

- You can add after </table> some HTML codes that will redirect you on other page clicking on number. Like this:

Code:

<br>
Pages: <a href="LINK TO FIRST PAGE">1</a>, <a href="LINK TO ANOTHER PAGE">2</a>, <a href="LINK TO ANOTHER PAGE">3</a>, <a href="LINK TO ANOTHER PAGE">4</a> ...

- You can fill in links in your table cells, adding:

Code:

<a href="HERE YOUR LINK">CLICK HERE</a>

If you want this to open in a new tab:

Code:

<a target="_blank" href="HERE YOUR LINK">CLICK HERE</a>

- You can link the table HTML page to a Category/Forum in Homepage of your forum, adding this code in your Category/Forum title from Administration Panel ~> General ~> Forum ~> Categories and forums:

Code:

<a href="LINK TO HTML PAGE YOU WANT">Click here</a>

Unfortunately I'm not very intelligible at english so I'm sorry.

^^^Thats super nice of you @SGSS. I will try these later tonight and will see what more questions I have, if any. Gratified!

EDIT: The immediate questions that I could think of right away are;

-How do I post "Model Year" in the table's third column replacing PRICE.
-How do I post "Date/Time/Location" in the last/fourth column. I want the computer date/time dynamically stamped, and want to add the location manually.

Thanks in advance.

This piece of code is making the columns, so you can change the text directly from:

<tr>
<th width="250">Picture</th>
<th width="100%">Description</th>
<th width="150">Price</th>
<th width="400">Date/Location</th>
</tr>

Just replace the underlined words to yours.

Thats not what I meant to ask, I was asking about filling in the fields in the table and not the column title.

Ok i get it about the model year that I will have to put it manually while listing a car but how do I insert date/time stamp in the last column table field.
