    <p>I have a form which allows a user to register for multiple events. These are listed in a form with checkboxes (all named <code>registrations[]</code> with the event ID as the value) and are submitted as an array.</p> <p>A subsequent page then loops through each 'checked' event, adding a record to the database for each event:</p> <pre><code>foreach ($_POST['registrations'] as $registration) { $query="SELECT exhibitions.exhib_id, DATE_FORMAT(exhibitions.exhib_date, %d/%m/%y'), venues.venue_name FROM exhibitions, venues WHERE exhibitions.venue_id='$registration' AND venues.venue_id='$registration' LIMIT 1"; $result=mysql_query($query); $vr=mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_NUM); $exhib_id=$vr[0]; $exhib_date=$vr[1]; $exhib_venue=$vr[2]; // do database stuff here } </code></pre> <p>What I need to do is store each <code>$exhib_date</code> and <code>$exhib_venue</code> in a separate array, which I can reuse later (within a confirmation email, which will list all events the user has registered for).</p> <p>I thought this would be as simple as establishing a new array <b>outside</b> the foreach loop e.g. <code>$events_attending=array();</code> and adding elements to the array <b>within</b> the foreach loop e.g. <code>$events_attending['date'] = $exhib_date;</code> and <code>$events_attending['venue'] = $exhib_venue;</code>.</p> <p>I've tested this minus the foreach loop using <code>print_r()</code> and it works fine - so I'm guessing that's where my issue lies?</p> <p>Can anyone help at all? Thanks in advance!</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
