I Have No Idea How This Works.

Hi,

 

Som I'm currently making a website using Joomla.

One of the pages is supposed to list restaurants ordered by area, and under by name. There will be several of these pages, so different cities are involved too.

So since I've helped on a site that had a similar thing, I thought I could modify that php code and add a similar database table.

 

The table is called _restaurant, and the needed columns are 'city', 'area', 'restaurant' and 'link'.

 

Basicly how I want it to look on the page for "TheCity":

 

Area1

 

Restaurant

sorted

 

Area2

 

by

name

 

The name of the restaurant is what u see on the list, but they are actually links to their website, taken from the 'link' column.

I really don't have any PHP experience at all, but I hope it's ok for me to ask for help anyway.

 

When I edited the code I got;

 

<?php
$db =& JFactory::getDBO();
$query = "SELECT * FROM #__restaurant WHERE city='TheCity' ORDER BY 'area', 'restaurant'";
$db->setQuery($query);
$db->loadAssoc();
if($value == null)
$value = $citysort;
$reses = $db->loadAssocList();
$last = "";
foreach ($reses as $row)
{
$text = "<strong>{$row['area']}</strong><br />";
if($value == $citysort){
 if($row['area'] != $last){
  echo "<h4><a name=\"{$row['area']}\" city=\"\"></a>{$row['area']}</h4>";
  $last = $row['area'];
 }
 $text = "";
}

echo "<p class=\"contentpane\">" . $text . "<a target='_blank' href=\"{$row['link']}\">{$row['restaurant']}<br /></a></p>";
}
?>

 

This gave me the list, but it would always type out the 'area' eventhough it was already listed, and they did not sort either.

 

I really hope someone is willing to help someone who don't really have any experience.

At least go learn the basics of PHP.
