    <p>Bear with me here--this may be a bit confusing.</p> <p>I am retrieving two sets of data with SQL. Here's the code, with the query. I'm using Zend Framework.</p> <pre><code>$assignments = $db-&gt;fetchAll("SELECT id,name,class FROM assignments"); foreach($assignments as $a) { $assignmentID = $a['id']; $studentData = $db-&gt;fetchAll( "SELECT student,assignment,status,assignmentID FROM student_assignments WHERE assignmentID='$assignmentID'" ); echo "&lt;th&gt;".$a['name']."&lt;/th&gt;"; foreach($studentData as $s) { $bottom .= "&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;" . $s['student'] . " " . $s['assignmentID'] . " ".$s['status'] . "&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;"; $i++; } } echo "&lt;/tr&gt;$bottom;"; </code></pre> <p>Here's what the output looks like in the HTML:</p> <pre><code>|Assignment on 07/07/2012| |Assignment on 07/12/2012| |Assignment on 07/15/2012| 117 1 Y 332 1 N 36 1 N 420 1 N 332 1 Y 326 2 N 212 2 N 461 2 N 117 2 N 212 2 N 212 3 N 326 3 N 117 3 Y 420 3 Y </code></pre> <p>Now the top part is working great -- it's dynamically showing each assignment in the database. But I've been trying to figure out a way to get the appropriate data to show under those columns, to no effect. This is the closest I've gotten to making it look somewhat correct.</p> <p>Essentially, the data that has "2" and "3" in the middle should go into the 2nd and 3rd columns, respectively. But this isn't happening because all the data is stored into the $bottom variable, rather than the data for each assignment.</p> <p>Does anyone have any suggestions? This is driving me crazy, and I feel like the solution is staring me in the face.</p> <p>Thanks!</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.
