Answer 3

Generic example.
// your data
$a = array(
'a',
'b',
array (
'c',
'd',
array ('e','f')
)
);
// your recursive function
function echo_row($x) {
if (is_array($x)) {
// if is an array calls the recursive function over the new array
foreach ($x as $e) {
echo_row($e);
}
} else {
// prints a row, change to your table html
echo $x . "<br>";
}
}
// execute the function
echo_row($a);
// results
a
b
c
d
e
f

Answer 4

something like that
foreach($reports as $report) {
foreach($report as $element) {
//$element[3] would give you 2012-11-02 11:30:00
if(is_array($element) {
foreach($element as $x) {
foreach($x as $y) {
//$y[1] would give you Whirlpool Ice Magic 30.sec Tamil
}
}
}
}
}

Answer 5

foreach($reports as $key1=>$val1)
{
foreach($val1 as $key2=>$val2)
{
foreach($val2 as $key3=>$val3)
{
echo $val;
}
}
}

Answer 6

i have created a php function, that will extract a nested array into new basic array:
function extractArray($nested_array,&$new_array)
{
foreach($nested_array as $key => $val)
{
if(is_array($val)) extractArray($val,$new_array);
else $new_array[$key] = $val;
}
}

Something like:
array_walk_recursive($reports,
create_function('$e','if (is_scalar($e)) printf("%s\n",$e);'));
