PHP新手技术求助：使用TCPDF将单个Div内的HTML表格生成PDF失败问题排查

别担心，单个PHP文件完全能搞定这个需求，你的代码里有几个容易忽略的小问题，我帮你梳理并修正：

先看几个关键错误点： #

• TCPDF常量拼写错误：你写的PDG_PAGE_ORIENTATION是笔误，应该是PDF_PAGE_ORIENTATION（少了个F），这会直接导致TCPDF初始化失败。
• HTML标签语法错误：你在PDF生成部分硬编码的HTML表格里，所有<tr>都没有闭合（只有<tr>开头，没有</tr>结尾），TCPDF解析错误的HTML时会出现异常。
• HTTP头输出顺序问题：原代码先输出了完整的HTML页面，然后才处理PDF生成逻辑。当用户点击提交按钮后，服务器已经先发送了HTML的HTTP头，此时TCPDF再尝试发送PDF的Content-Type头就会失效，导致PDF无法正常渲染。
• 重复硬编码数据：明明已经有动态解析JSON生成表格的逻辑，没必要在PDF部分写死数据，复用动态生成的HTML更高效且不易出错。

修正后的完整代码： #

重点修复说明： #

1. 调整代码执行顺序：把PDF生成的逻辑放在最前面，这样当用户提交表单时，服务器还没输出任何HTML内容，TCPDF可以正常发送PDF的HTTP头，避免"headers already sent"错误。
2. 修正TCPDF常量拼写：把PDG_PAGE_ORIENTATION改成正确的PDF_PAGE_ORIENTATION。
3. 动态生成PDF表格：复用解析后的JSON数据生成PDF里的表格，避免硬编码数据，同时保证HTML标签完全闭合。
4. 添加exit语句：生成PDF后立即终止脚本，防止后续的HTML内容被输出到PDF文件里。

这样修改后，点击"Generate PDF"按钮应该就能正常生成包含完整表格的PDF文件了。
