PHP / MySQL Associative Multidimensional Array:

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hello.

I have data in a MySQL Table that adheres to the below: (note, no index, could add if necessary)

group~~~~~setting~~~~~value
1~~~~~~~~~Babble~~~~~Yeah, sure
1~~~~~~~~~Dabble~~~~~No, rather not
2~~~~~~~~~Crab~~~~~~~Maybe
3~~~~~~~~~Flab~~~~~~~Nah, not today

I want to query this and add it to an associative multidimensional array.

I have the following:

Line number On/Off | Expand/Contract $getem = array(array()); while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { $getem[][] = $row['group']; $getem[][] = $row['setting']; $getem[][] = $row['value']; }


Of course, this is not associative. I thought if I changed $getem = array(array()); to $getem = array( array('group', 'setting', 'value') );, then it would be associative, but this isn't working.

My ultimate goal is this:

I have a second table in which the 'group' of the above table is a FK to the index of the second table. The end result, once processed and matched using PHP, is to print out the following:

Group Name 1
~~~Babble~~~Year, sure
~~~Dabble~~~No, rather not
Group Name 2
~~~Crab~~~~Maybe
Group Name 3
~~~Flab~~~~Nah, not today

Am I on the right track? You don't need to write the code for me, I'm just looking for a little direction.

Thanks
