    <p>I'm trying to get the output grouped by month using PHP and MYSQL. With some help from stack before I was provided a simple solution.</p> <pre><code>if ($last_month != $month) { $monthDiv = "&lt;div class='monthSalute'&gt;$month&lt;/div&gt;"; $last_month = "$month"; } else { $monthDiv = ""; } </code></pre> <p>Easy enough and it made a lot of sense. The only problem is the month variable and <code>$last_month</code> are skipping every once in a while. To explain I did some var dump for last month and month. Notice the skipped month.</p> <pre><code>string(8) "December" string(8) "December" string(7) "January" string(7) "January" string(0) "" string(0) "" string(7) "January" string(7) "January" string(5) "March" string(5) "March" string(5) "April" string(5) "April" </code></pre> <p>This ends up with an output like this:</p> <pre><code>**December -- header** dec1 - game dec5 - game dec31 - game **January -- header** jan4 - game jan7 - game jan26 - game **January -- header** jan27 - game jan31 - game </code></pre> <p>It should be </p> <pre><code>**January -- header** jan4 - game jan7 - game jan26 - game jan27 - game jan31 - game </code></pre> <p>Notice there is no second January Header.</p> <p>Here is the full code as a reference.</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php // Check to see the URL variable is set and that it exists in the database // Connect to the MySQL database include "../../includes/db_conx.php"; //-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $sqlcount = "SELECT * FROM discounts WHERE team='cyoram' ORDER BY date ASC"; $sql_countRam = mysqli_query($db_conx,$sqlcount); $calCount = mysqli_num_rows($sql_count); //-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- if ($calCount &gt; 0) { // get all the product details $x=0; while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($sql_countRam)){ $id = $row["id"]; $opponent = $row["opponent"]; $team = $row["team"]; $notes = $row["notes"]; $month = $row["month"]; $buyLink = $row["buyLink"]; $time = $row["time"]; $date = $row["date"]; $formatted_date = date("l d F Y H:i A", strtotime($date)); $raw = "$formatted_date"; $xplod = explode(' ',$raw); /* \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ */ include "includes/logos.php"; /* \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ */ $classCssRam = "inline-block"; $x++; $classChangeRam = ($x%2 == 0)?

    2. CO@jeroen Yes, they do all have months. I'm puzzled as to what may be happening. It's almost as if it times out or something. I don't think it would happen on every refresh though.

    3. COYou should do a complete `var_dump()` of the row that gives you the empty month as the problem seems to be with that row.

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.
