    <p>I have extensively searched the web for this but haven't found anything that can help!</p> <p>At the moment I have three loops:</p> <pre><code>// loop 1 finds the answers if(isset($_POST['qanswer'])){ ($question = $_POST['qanswer']); for($i=0; $i &lt; count($question); $i++) { echo "POSTED ANSWERS" . $question[$i] . "&lt;br/&gt;"; } } else { echo '&lt;p style="color: Red"&gt;No Answers POSTED!&lt;/p&gt;'; } // loop 2 finds the comments if(isset($_POST['canswer'])){ ($comment = $_POST['canswer']); for($i=0; $i &lt; count($comment); $i++) { echo "POSTED COMMENTS" . $comment[$i] . "&lt;br/&gt;"; } } else { echo '&lt;p style="color: Red"&gt;No Comments POSTED!&lt;/p&gt;'; } // loop 3 combines the answers and comments for($x = 0; $x &lt; count($comment); $x++){ if(isset($question[$x])){ $question[$x] = $question[$x] . ' ' . $comment[$x]; } } $result = $question; // saves the answers and comments as a string ($result) </code></pre> <p>Each comment[$i] is the same key and $question[$i]. Inserting into the table i have:</p> <pre><code>$query = "INSERT INTO audit_data (Q4101, Q4102, Q4103, Q4104, etc...) VALUES '$result[0]','$result[1]','$result[2]','$result[3]','$result[4]', etc...)"; mysqli_query($link, $query) or die(mysqli_error($link)." Q=".$query); </code></pre> <p>1) is this the best way to go about this?</p> <p>2) It is nearly working, i can get the $question and $comment into the first columns for instance: $result[0] to result[10] but if i try to insert further on in the table say $result[40] to $result[50] i only get the $question values and no $comment values. </p> <p>I have looked at array_map and preg_match on the manual but not sure how or which one to use.</p>

    1. COYour database structure is wrong. And all other problems are mere consequences.

    2. CONo, it's not. Your DB structure needs normalization. Storing one question/column is a BAD design. You're also wide-open to [sql injection attacks](http://bobby-tables.com), so enjoy having your server pwn3d.

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.
