How can I make something like this

http://www.investopedia.com/categories/acronyms.asp

Is there anyway I can bypass making each word (definition) a link?

Or do I have to make EACH one?


Thanks.

You need a database of words and acronyms, and yes, you can display it anyway you need to in php. Like for example, you have a database of words with the columns: word, acronym, link. For example:

PHP Code:

$output = array();
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($res)) {
  $html = $row['word'] . ' - ' . $row['acronym'];
  if (!empty($row['link']) {
    $html = '<a href="' . $row['link'] . '">' . $html . '</a>';
  }
  $html = '<p>' . $html . '</p>';
  $output[] = $html;
}
// Print all records
echo implode("\n", $output);
