I currently have a database setup with the following fields:
Category_Name | Display_Name | Display_ID
What I'm trying to do is to group everything by category, and then provide a hyperlink by display name, but I just can't seem to figure out what the heck I'm doing. For example:
Cars
Jetta -> ID: 1
Passat -> ID: 2
Trucks
Yukon -> ID: 3
Sierra -> ID: 4
So what I currently have, I can get the first heading and the next section, but for some reason I can't get the ID number to end up where I want it.
...mysql to gather the data as an array
$categories = Array();
foreach( $cats as $permrow )
{
$categories[$permrow['Category_Name']][] = $permrow['Display_Name'];
}
foreach($categories as $key => $category){
echo '<h1>'.$key.'</h1><br/>';
foreach($category as $key => $item){
echo $item.'<br/>';
}
}
So I get how this works, but I can't quite figure out what my next step is to get that third piece of data.
If the ID is unique you can add the id as the key of the array in the second dimension.
$categories = Array();
foreach( $cats as $permrow )
{ //--added ID as key to the 2nd array dimension
$categories[$permrow['Category_Name']][$permrow['Display_ID']] = $permrow['Display_Name'];
}
foreach($categories as $key => $category){
echo '<h1>'.$key.'</h1><br/>';
foreach($category as $id => $item){ //--changed $key to $id
echo "<a href=\"thelink?id=$id\">$item</a><br>";
}
}
