how could I display my data from the database to a html table dynamically?
Because I dont want to create manually each row in a table, i mean for each rows of data a table for it should be automatically created
Please give me examples on how to do this. Please use example first name and last name data

You can pass your query results directly to the generate function of the table class.

HTML Table class

Code by Adam Griffiths Auth 1.0.6
Code:
// --------------------------------------------------------------------

/**
  * manage()
  *
  * Description:
  *
  * @access public
  * @param string
  * @return void
  */
public function manage()
{
  // Grab an array of users from the database
  $data = $this->users->users();

  // Setting headings for the table
  $this->table->set_heading('Username', 'Email', 'Actions');
  
  foreach($data as $value => $key)
  {
   // Build actions links
   $actions = anchor("admin/users/edit/".$key['id']."/", "Edit") . anchor("admin/users/delete/".$key['id']."/", "Delete");

   // Adding row to table
   $this->table->add_row($key['username'], $key['email'], $actions);
  }

  // Load the Auth specific view
  $this->auth->view('users/manage');
}

Should show you how to do it.

Im confused in the examples, i dont know where to put those code in the model or the controller, and how they link together, where to load the table library class...

Personally, I don't use the table class, but if I did, I would do something like:

controller
Code:
$this->load->library('table');

$records = $this->my_model->getSomething();

$data['table'] = $this->table->generate($records);

$this->load->view('myview', $data);

view
Code:
<!--
stuff above
-->
<?php echo $table; ?>
<!--
stuff below
-->

thanks. I got the idea now.. but could you give me examples on generating a table for all of my columns in the database except for the ID column only. Normally I would use the SELECT ALL query but i dont want the id of the person to be displayed in the generated html table. sorry if my english was confusing??
