MySQL / PHP Not inserting correct amount of entries - php

Question

Hopefully this will be quite simple for someone.
I have the following code:
<?php
// Connects to your Database
mysql_connect("localhost", "xxxxx", "xxxxx") or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("xxxxx") or die(mysql_error());
require("../includes/common.php");
require("admin_header.php");
require("admin_menu.php");
$query = "Truncate TABLE pt_menutitles";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
// Menu Headers for Category
$data = "select a.menuheader, a.total from(SELECT distinct (menuheader),count(*) as total FROM `pt_products` WHERE `menuheader` <> '' group by `menuheader` order by total desc limit 4) a order by a.menuheader";
$result = mysql_query($data) or die(mysql_error());
while($info = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
$menudata = "select a.subcategory, a.menuheader,a.totcount FROM(SELECT distinct (subcategory),menuheader,count(*) as totcount FROM `pt_products` WHERE `menuheader`='".$info['menuheader']."' AND subcategory <> ''group by `subcategory` order by totcount desc limit 4) a order by a.subcategory";
$menuresult = mysql_query($menudata) or die(mysql_error());
while($menuinfo = mysql_fetch_array($menuresult))
{
$sql = "Insert into pt_menutitles (menu, title, totalcount) select '".$menuinfo['menuheader']."','".$menuinfo ['subcategory']."','".$menuinfo ['totcount']."'";
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());
}
}
?>
Basically I take the top 4 menu titles that have the most items in them, then select the top 4 subcategories in them titles and insert them into a table.
What is happening though is that i'm onlyt getting Menu Title 1 and Subcategories 1 to 4 inserted into my table.
It's as though the the loop is ending after the first time round?
Any advise would be great!
Cheers
Chris

Answer 1

This line replaces your existing result and ends the loop. Use any other (non-existing) variable name, but not $result.
$sql = "Insert into pt_menutitles (menu, title, totalcount) select '".$menuinfo['menuheader']."','".$menuinfo ['subcategory']."','".$menuinfo ['totcount']."'";
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());
