Horizontal Menu With Php Array


Hybride

Recommended Posts

I have a table that I want to create into a horizontal menu using lists/CSS in my header. I have the code that creates the menu, I just can't figure out the foreach loops to actually generate the menu.

 

$refs = array();
$list = array();

$result = full_query("SELECT id,title,slug,parent FROM `page`");

while($data = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
$thisref = &$refs[$data['id']];

$thisref['parent'] = $data['parent'];
$thisref['title'] = unserialize($data['title']);
$thisref['slug'] = $data['slug'];

if($data['parent'] == 0)
{
$list[$data['id']] = &$thisref;
}
else
{
$refs[$data['parent']]['children'][$data['id']] = &$thisref;
}
}

// can't figure this part out
foreach($list as $keys => $var)
{
foreach($var as $vkey => $vvar)
{
if(isset($vkey['children']))
{
print $vkey;
}
}
}

 

Which, with my current data, results in this array:

Array
(
[4] => Array
 (
	 [children] => Array
		 (
			 [1] => Array
				 (
					 [parent] => 4
					 [title] => Child1
					 [id] => 1
					 [slug] => child1
				 )

		 )

	 [parent] =>
	 [title] => Parent1
	 [id] => 4
	 [slug] => parent1
 )

[6] => Array
 (
	 [children] => Array
		 (
			 [2] => Array
				 (
					 [parent] => 6
					 [title] => child2
					 [id] => 2
					 [slug] => child2
				 )

			 [3] => Array
				 (
					 [parent] => 6
					 [title] => child3
					 [id] => 3
					 [slug] => child3
				 )

			 [8] => Array
				 (
					 [parent] => 6
					 [title] => child4
					 [id] => 8
					 [slug] => child4
				 )

		 )

	 [parent] =>
	 [title] => Parent2
	 [id] => 6
	 [slug] => parent2
 )

[7] => Array
 (
	 [parent] =>
	 [title] => Parent3
	 [id] => 7
	 [slug] => parent3
 )

[9] => Array
 (
	 [parent] =>
	 [title] => Parent4
	 [id] => 9
	 [slug] => parent4
 )

)

 

Am trying to get the foreach to do this:

 

Parent1

  • Child1

Parent2

  • Child2
  • Child3
  • Child4

Parent3

Parent4

 

But horizontally. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I figured it out, not sure if this is a bit brutish, so I would love a more elegant answer if possible:

// and published = '1' //true
                   $refs = array();
                   $list = array();

                   $result = full_query("SELECT id,title,slug,parent FROM `pages` WHERE title!='404' AND slug!='404'");

                   while($data = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
                   {
                       $thisref = &$refs[$data['id']];

                       $thisref['parent'] = $data['parent'];
                       $thisref['title'] = $data['title'] = pages_data_lang2(unserialize($data['title']));
                       $thisref['slug'] = $data['slug'];
                       $thisref['id'] = $data['id'];

                       if($data['parent'] == 0)
                       {
                           $list[$data['title']] = &$thisref;
                       }
                       else
                       {
                           $refs[$data['parent']]['children'][$data['id']] = &$thisref;
                       }
                   }

                   print "<div id='topmenu'><ul>";
                   foreach($list as $keys => $var)
                   {
                       if(($var['id'] == 4) || ($var['id'] == 6) || ($var['id'] == 7) || ($var['id'] == 11))
                       {
                           print "<li><a href='".$var['slug']."'>$keys</a><ul>";

                           foreach($var['children'] as $vkey=>$vvar)
                           {
                               print "<li><a href='".$vvar['slug']."'>".$vvar['title']."</a></li>";
                           }
                           print "</ul>";
                       }

                   }
                   echo "</ul></div>";
