Submitted by razormist on Saturday, March 23, 2019 - 21:22.
In this tutorial we will create a Simple Multiplication Table using PHP. This program can display a multiplication table when the user enter a multiplier in the input text box. This simple code use a arithmetic function to multiply a couple of digit in order to achieve this table multiplier. This is a user-friendly kind of program feel free to modify it. We will be using PHP as a scripting language that is used primarily on any webserver including xamp, wamp, etc. It describe as an advance technology that manage both server and control-block of your machine.

Getting Started:

First you have to download & install XAMPP or any local server that run PHP scripts. Here's the link for XAMPP server https://www.apachefriends.org/index.html. And, this is the link for the bootstrap that i used for the layout design https://getbootstrap.com/.

Creating The Interface

This is where we will create a simple form for our application. To create the forms simply copy and write it into your text editor, then save it as index.php.
  1. <!DOCTYPE html>
  2. <html lang="en">
  3.         <head>
  4.                 <meta charset="UTF-8" name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"/>
  5.                 <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/bootstrap.css"/>
  6.         </head>
  7. <body>
  8.         <nav class="navbar navbar-default">
  9.                 <div class="container-fluid">
  10.                         <a class="navbar-brand" href="https://sourcecodester.com">Sourcecodester</a>
  11.                 </div>
  12.         </nav>
  13.         <div class="col-md-3"></div>
  14.         <div class="col-md-6 well">
  15.                 <h3 class="text-primary">PHP - Simple Multiplication Table</h3>
  16.                 <hr style="border-top:1px dotted #ccc;"/>
  17.                
  18.                 <form method="POST" action="">
  19.                         <div class="form-inline">
  20.                                 <label>Enter a number:</label>
  21.                                 <input type="number" class="form-control" min="0" max="10" name="digit" required="required"/>
  22.                                 <button class="btn btn-primary" name="calculate">Calculate</button>
  23.                         </div>
  24.                 </form>
  25.                 <br /><br />
  26.                 <?php include 'calculate.php'?>
  27.         </div>
  28. </body>
  29. </html>

Creating the Main Function

This code contains the main function of the application. This code will display a multiplication when the user enter data on the form. To make this just copy and write these block of codes below inside the text editor, then save it as calculate.php
  1. <?php
  2.         if(ISSET($_POST['calculate'])){
  3. ?>
  4. <table class="table table-bordered">
  5.         <?php
  6.                
  7.                 for($i = 1; $i <= $_POST['digit']; $i++) {
  8.                         echo "<tr>";
  9.                        
  10.                         for($j = 1; $j <= 10; $j++){
  11.        
  12.                                 echo"<td>".$i*$j."</td>";
  13.                         }
  14.                        
  15.                         echo"</tr>";
  16.                 }
  17.        
  18.         ?>
  19. </table>
  20. <?php          
  21.         }
  22. ?>
