fetching multiple columns of mysql table and echoing each row - php

Question

I have this php/html code that echos a column from a mysql table called "tickets".
These are the 3 columns in the table (member_id, ticket_id, ticket_result).
I want to be able to grab the info from the other columns in a specific row and echo that with the foreach loop. I just don't know how I would be able to do that because you can only have 1 array in a foreach loop so if I was to make add this line to the PHP Code I don't see how I could echo it in the foreach loop.
$me3 = array();
$me2[] = $row->ticket_result;
PHP Code:
public function tickets() {
$this->db_connection = new mysqli('', '', '', '');
$sql = "SELECT ticket_result
FROM tickets
WHERE member_id = '1'";
$query = $this->db_connection->query($sql);
$me2 = array();
while ($row = $query->fetch_object()) {
$me2[] = $row->ticket_result;
}
return $me2;
}
}
HTML Code:
<?php $me2 = $classLogin->tickets(); ?>
<?php foreach($me2 as $value) { ?>
<table>
<thead>
<th>Result</th>
<th>ID</th>
</thead>
<tr>
<td><?php echo $value; ?> </td>
<td> </td>
<?php } ?>
</tr>
</table>

You're only selecting one column of your table:
$sql = "SELECT ticket_result FROM tickets WHERE member_id = '1'";
Your statement should look like this:
$sql = "SELECT member_id, ticket_id, ticket_result FROM tickets WHERE member_id = '1'";
Or:
$sql = "SELECT * FROM tickets WHERE member_id = '1'";
Then you can retrieve your data with this:
while ($row = $query->fetch_object()) {
$me2[$row->ticket_id]['ticket_result'] = $row->ticket_result;
$me2[$row->ticket_id]['member_id'] = $row->member_id;
}
So you'll have an array ($me2) that contains keys according to your ticked_ids and each key is an array with the keys ticket_result and member_id which contain that data from your db.
Then you can implement your foreach like this:
foreach($me2 as $key => $value) {
echo $key;
echo $value['ticket_result'];
echo $value['member_id'];
}
Also, if the HTML you have to print is not that much, I suggest you better use echo and concatenate a string withing a single php clause rather than opening and closing multiple php tags for every little php code you have to execute, your code would look like this:
<?php
$me2 = $classLogin->tickets();
echo
'<table>
<thead>
<th>Result</th>
<th>ID</th>
</thead>';
foreach($me2 as $key => $value) {
echo
'<tr>
<td>'.$value['ticket_result'].'</td>
<td>'.$value['member_id'].'</td>
</tr>';
}
echo '</table>';
?>
