Nested Query Data...

Nested Query Data...

I have a page that I developed in Dreamweaver at http://www.abilityconnectiontexas.org/employment.php where I nest a looping set of job location/time data inside another loop of job descriptions (you can see this under the accordion item "Current Openings - Full Time/Part Time where there are five active job descriptions. Under the first job description is a section that loops over specific location/time openings for that particular job type.

I'm trying to replicate this using the MySQL Server Behaviors but they are not allowing me to insert a loop within an existing loop.

I've attached the original (employment_oldsite.php) and new (employmentinfo_newsite.php) files for you to view.

Thanks for your help!

yes, it won't allow you to add the loop inside an existing loop, you need to add the loop out side of the existing loop, then cut the code and move it inside the existing loop.

Thanks Jason!

I was able to sort it out this morning. I was trying to use the code from the old page but adapting the MySQL variables to pull MySQLi in the new page. That didn't work.

Knowing that we loop job location and time data on a single jobID (1025), I added a condition to the loop:

<?php if ($rsJobLocation->TotalRows > 0 AND $rsOpenings->getColumnVal("careerID") == 1025) { // Show if mysqli recordset not empty ?>

Then I removed the superfluous code and everything worked.

It's possible that we'll have other jobIDs that will need location and time info to loop over. If that's necessary I can create a field to id those careerID values to show that they require the loop and put that in my condition. For now this will work.

As always I value your wisdom, and if you know of a better way to do this, feel free to share!

enthusiastically,

Mark
