Hi Dear,

First try on yourself......

Create your required field with the help of table tag and echo the records from database in respective

<table><tbody><tr><td>?<?php echo "your records here";  ??></td></tr></tbody></table>

tag and and if you want to color records or background the put your condition before echo that records.

Solution 4

There is only one mistake which is in the last line of the code. noOfProcess is a variable and variable should start with $ symbol in php.

Wrong

PHP

echo $table_string= Table("noOfProcess",3);

Corrected

PHP

echo $table_string= Table($noOfProcess,3);
