I am a PHP noob and have been unable to find a solution for the following:

 

I am working with a mySQL table called "Agenda" with the following columns:

Date, Time, TalkTitle, Talk_ID.

 

I need to display this on a page so that it reads as a normal agenda, like this:

 

Day 1

8:00a      talk 1.1 title

10:00a    talk 1.2 title

12:00p    talk 1.3 title

 

Day 2

8:30a      talk 2.1 title

11:00a    talk 2.2 title

1:00p      talk 2.3 title

 

Day 3

8:00a      talk 3.1 title

9:00a      talk 3.2 title

12:30p    talk 3.3 title

 

(this is a simplified example just to illustrate what I am trying to achieve)

 

Unfortunately my current code produces this (using a nested loop):

 

Day 1

8:00a      talk 1.1 title

 

Day 1

10:00a    talk 1.2 title

 

Day 1

12:00p    talk 1.3 title

 

Day 2

8:30a      talk 2.1 title

 

Day 2

11:00a    talk 2.2 title

...etc...

 

Can anyone walk me through the basics of displaying data in the manner intended?  Thank you!

Here's my code:


<?php
$colname_master1Agenda = "-1";
if (isset($_GET['recordID'])) {
  $colname_master1Agenda = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? $_GET['recordID'] : addslashes($_GET['recordID']);
}

mysql_select_db($database_AGCI, $AGCI);
$query_master1Agenda = sprintf("SELECT * Agenda WHERE EventID_fk = %s ORDER BY Date", GetSQLValueString($colname_master1Agenda, "int"));
$master1Agenda = mysql_query($query_master1Agenda, $AGCI) or die(mysql_error());
$row_master1Agenda = mysql_fetch_assoc($master1Agenda);
$totalRows_master1Agenda = mysql_num_rows($master1Agenda);

mysql_select_db($database_AGCI, $AGCI);
$query_detail2Agenda = "SELECT * FROM Agenda WHERE Talk_ID=123456789 ORDER BY Time ASC";
$detail2Agenda = mysql_query($query_detail2Agenda, $AGCI) or die(mysql_error());
$row_detail2Agenda = mysql_fetch_assoc($detail2Agenda);
$totalRows_detail2Agenda = mysql_num_rows($detail2Agenda);
?>

<div id="agenda">
  <table border="0">       
  <tr class="faint_gray">
    
    <td height="34" scope="col"><b>DAY/TIME</b></td>
    <td scope="col"><b>TITLE</b></td>
    <td scope="col"></td>
    <td scope="col"><b>PRESENTER</b></td>
  </tr>       

  <?php do { ?>
    <tr>
      <td colspan="4">

<?php echo $row_master1Agenda['Date']; // print date 

       </td>
    </tr>
    
    <?php
  if ($totalRows_master1Agenda>0) {
    $nested_query_detail2Agenda = str_replace("123456789", $row_master1Agenda['Talk_ID'], $query_detail2Agenda);
    mysql_select_db($database_AGCI);
    $detail2Agenda = mysql_query($nested_query_detail2Agenda, $AGCI) or die(mysql_error());
    $row_detail2Agenda = mysql_fetch_assoc($detail2Agenda);
    $totalRows_detail2Agenda = mysql_num_rows($detail2Agenda);
    $nested_sw = false;
    if (isset($row_detail2Agenda) && is_array($row_detail2Agenda)) {
      do { //Nested repeat
?>
      <tr>
        <td width="75" valign="top">
        <?php echo $row_detail2Agenda['Time']);  // print time  ?> 
 </td>

        <td width="350" valign="top">
        <?php echo $row_detail2Agenda['TalkTitle']; // print talk title ?>
        </td>

        <td width="20" valign="top"></td>
        <td valign="top">
<?php echo $row_detail2Agenda['PresenterNameFirst']; ?> <?php echo $row_detail2Agenda['PresenterNameLast']; // print presenter name?>
         </td>
      </tr>
      <?php
      } while ($row_detail2Agenda = mysql_fetch_assoc($detail2Agenda)); //Nested move next
    }
  }
?>
    <?php } while ($row_master1Agenda = mysql_fetch_assoc($master1Agenda)); ?>

</table>       
</div>


<?php 
mysql_free_result($master1Agenda);
mysql_free_result($detail2Agenda); 
?>
