Help with smarty foreach

[tomdchi]

am having some smarty trouble with data display in a table.

I have two arrays values that are related and I am trying to display them in a certain order in a table.  The purpose is to reconcile payments to deposits.

The table would look like:

 

 

 

    
Date      Name         Funding ID              Status   Amount
06/22/09   Tom      6230860059999-13246785     Funded   428.00 
06/22/09   Mike     6230860059999-13246785     Funded   225.77 
06/22/09   Tom      6230860059999-13246785     Funded   107.00 
                                                Total:  760.77

Deposit Date          Trans ID             Amount Deposited
06/24/09        6230860059999-13246785          760.77

Date      Name         Funding ID          Status   Amount
06/25/09   Steve    770875636-13246785     Funded   375.00 
06/25/09   Sam      770875636-13246785     Funded    81.15 
                                            Total:  456.15

Deposit Date          Trans ID             Amount Deposited
06/26/09        770875636-13246785             456.15

 

So there could be multiple sections like above detailing the payments and deposits so they can be reconciled.  Each section can have multiple payments but only one deposit.

 

The first array contains data for the payments and the second array has the deposits.  I tried using two foreach's but that doesn't display as it is above.  I thought maybe I should use section but I am very confused on its syntax for these purposes.  I am assigning each array like

 

 

 

$query1= blah blah query here
$payment_list[] = $rs;
$smarty->assign('pmt', $payment_list);


$query2= blah blah query here
$deposit_list[] = $r2;
$smarty->assign('deposit', $deposit_list);

 

Payments and Deposits are tied together with fundingid/transid.

 

Can someone help me out on this?

 

 

Thanks!

Is it safe for me to assume that both arrays are sorted by date/time order?  If so, you could probably "cheat" a little by taking the first payment and checking it against the first deposit.  Are they equal?  If not, add the second payment to the first payment.  Is the new total equal to the first deposit?  If yes, increment to the second deposit and so on.  It's not very elegant but it might get the job done!
