General YPN >> There WAS a bug in the linux section

Yes, there was a BIG bug in the linux section that made the tables look really messed up. Fortunately, i started playing around with the code, and it is back to normal now =)

It was pretty confusing with all that php in the beginning, but i think i've got it right now.

btw, colspan and rowspan lollipop, was a pain to follow all these rowspans until i finally understood how these spanning tables REALLY work...

Fixing a bug in a program you didn't write, in a language you've never used before... Good job, svara! .

em... robert, dun overdo this, it was only html not really the php-script
But anyway, good work svara and thanx for doing it because it really is a lot of work to get into somebody elses code especially with all the php around it, it was probably pretty difficult.

yeh, the php was not the problem.
In the beginning i started to try and understand the php part, until i noticed it didn't help, so i got the great idea to use border="5" on the table for a test, and then i easily saw it was the colspan part that was messed up.
The only thing i changed in php is that i put that thing that gets the data outta the db on top of the page, and have that rowspan on the left spacer td be the number of entries. (i copied that part from somewhere below, so i THINK that's what it does), but i figure it actually should be that number /2, as we have two rows of docs, but it works either way.

I also cleaned up the html a bit
peter: <bR> (yes, the r is upper case) looks REALLY messy.

yeah, nice thing... rowspans and colspans are pretty funny... but hard to figure out, especially in somebody else's code
