How can i repeat a while cicle in php?-CodePudding

I need to create a 'wall' of images. There's my code:

 <?php 
          $q = $db->prepare("SELECT * FROM wall");
          $q->execute();
        
          
          while($row = $q->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC)) {  ?>
           
      <div class="col-4-perc"><img src="<?=$site?>/assets/img/wall/<?=$row['source']?>.png" 
       alt="Foto wall" class="img-fluid"></div>

    <?php } ?>

I would like to repeat the while loop repeating the photos in the database at least 3/4 times but I don't know how to do it.

As explain in comment, you have to use FetchAll instead of fetch in a while. Here is a exemple script for the result you want :

$q = $db->prepare("SELECT * FROM wall");
$q->execute();
$allImage = $q->fetchAll() ;
$limit = 100 ;
$activeKey = 0 ;

for ($i = 0; $i < $limit ;$i  ){
    
    if (!isset($allImage[$activeKey]['source'])) {
        $activeKey = 0 ;
        // if the line does not exist, reset to the first key (0)
    }

        echo "<div class='col-4-perc'><img src='{$site}/assets/img/wall/{$allImage[$activeKey]['source']}.png' 
       alt='Foto wall' class='img-fluid'></div>";
        $activeKey   ;
    
}

Images are saved in $allImage, a table with numeric indexes. Next we just have to loop with a simple for using $limit (the max image you want display). And $activeKey for the curent displayed image, if $allImage[$activeKey] is not set, reset to 0.
