Answer 1

Simple usein join should be enough. Your query shoul by like this:

select * from clenstvi as cl join listky as li on cl.typ=listky.id;

Answer 2

you can use left outer join in your query

select * from table1 left outer join table2 on table1.id = table2.id;

and then concatenate those two columns in your select

$row['data1'].$row['data2'];
