Question

i need list something like this.
First table is display By using the this code.
<?php
if (isset($_REQUEST['asign'])) {
include 'includes/connection.php';
$sql12= $cid->query("SELECT name FROM user WHERE designation='Technical' AND status='1'");
$query = "SELECT * FROM allinone WHERE flag=3 ORDER BY id ASC";
$rs = $cid -> query($query);
$n = $rs -> num_rows;
echo "<br /><span style='color:red;'><center>$n records found</center></span>";
echo "<div id='record'>";
echo "<table border='1' width='80%' align='center' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' id='unsolTable'>";
echo "<tr>";
echo "<th>ID</th>";
echo "<th>Ticket Number</th>";
echo "<th>KOID</th>";
echo "<th>PROBLEM</th>";
echo "<th>COMMENT</th>";
echo "<th>DATE</th>";
echo "<th>TIME</th>";
echo "<th>STATUS</th>";
echo "<th>SOLVED BY</th>";
echo "<th>Assign</th>";
echo "<th>Assigned to</th>";
echo "</tr>";
while ($row = $rs -> fetch_assoc() ) {
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>" . $row['id'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['token'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['koid'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['problem'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['comment'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['date'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['time'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['status'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['solvedBy'] . "</td>";
echo "<td><a href='assign.php?qType=technical&name=anshul&id=" . $row['id'] . "'>anshul</a>
<br />
<a href='assign.php?qType=technical&name=kiran&id=" . $row['id'] . "'>kiran</a>
<br />
<a href='assign.php?qType=technical&name=akhilesh&id=" . $row['id'] . "'>akhilesh</a></td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['assTo'] . "-" . $row['assTime'] . "-" . $row['assDate'] . "</td>";
echo "</tr>";
}
echo"</table>";
echo "</div>";
}
?>
On the another side is list on the assign i don't want to write it manually just get from the database how can i do this??
$sql= $cid->query("SELECT name FROM user WHERE designation='Technical' AND status='1'");
while ($row=$sql->fetch_assoc()) {
$name= $row['name'];
}
this is the another code i want to add in first code.

Nothing prevents you from executing another SQL query inside you while loop; just replace the echo...anshul...echo...kiran... part with another while loop containing the code you already provided.
You just have to make sure that you use different variables, otherwise your $row variable is overwritten by the second query. Hence, you can do something like this:
// ...
echo "<td>" . $row['solvedBy'] . "</td>";
$resultSetAssignedUsers = $cid->query("SELECT name FROM user WHERE designation = 'Technical' AND status = '1'");
while ($rowAssignedUsers = $resultSetAssignedUsers->fetch_assoc()) {
echo "<td><a href='assign.php?qType=technical&name=" . $rowAssignedUsers['name'] . "&id=" . $row['id'] . "'>" . $rowAssignedUsers['name'] . "</a>";
}
echo "<td>" . $row['assTo'] . "-" . $row['assTime'] . "-" . $row['assDate'] . "</td>";
// ...
