Having Trouble Outputting Data correctly From SQL Table - php

Question

I am trying to outputting data from a SQL table
Table cols are:
sheduleID, userID, empID, timeSlot, WeekSlot, daySlot
Connecting to DB
$schedQ = "SELECT * FROM seo_schedule WHERE empID=1 AND weekSlot=1";
$Em1Wk1Res = mysql_query($schedQ) or die(mysql_error());
Displaying Data
echo "<div class='week1'>";
while ($Em1WkRow = mysql_fetch_array($Em1Wk1Res)) {
$clientQ = "SELECT * FROM clients WHERE userID=".$Em1WkRow["userID"]."";
$clientRes = mysql_query($clientQ) or die(mysql_error());
$clientRow = mysql_fetch_array($clientRes);
echo "<div class='day".$Em1WkRow["daySlot"]."'>";
if ($Em1WkRow["timeSlot"] == "am") {
echo "<span class='".$Em1WkRow["timeSlot"]."'>";
echo $clientRow["company"];
echo "</span>";
}
else if ($Em1WkRow["timeSlot"] == "pm") {
echo "<span class='".$Em1WkRow["timeSlot"]."'>";
echo $clientRow["company"];
echo "</span>";
}
echo "</div>";
}
echo "</div>";
Current Output
<div class="week1">
<div class="day1">
<span class="am">Company 1</span>
</div>
<div class="day1">
<span class="pm">Company 1</span>
</div>
<div class="day2">
<span class="am">Company 2</span>
</div>
<div class="day2">
<span class="pm">Company 2</span>
</div>
...etc fir rest of days in week 1
</div>
What I want to be displayed is:
<div class="week1">
<div class="day1">
<span class="am">Company 1</span>
<span class="pm">Company 1</span>
</div>
<div class="day2">
<span class="am">Company 2</span>
<span class="pm">Company 2</span>
</div>
...etc fir rest of days in week 1
</div>
How do I go about doing this....?

Answer 1

You need a nested while to go through the days of the week rendering <span />s inside the week container. I'm not a php dev so can't help you with the implementation, sorry.

Answer 2

The question is do these events depend on a specific time or are you just trying to throw them in 1 company event per day AM and PM? In which case, you can just do:
$arr = array(0 => "am", 1 => "pm");
echo "<div class='week1'>";
while($Em1WkRow = mysql_fetch_array($Em1Wk1Res))
{
$clientQ = "SELECT * FROM clients WHERE userID='" . $Em1WkRow["userID"] . "'";
$clientRes = mysql_query($clientQ) or die(mysql_error());
$i = 0;
$out .= "<div class='day" . $Em1WkRow["daySlot"] . "'>"; // start day
while($clientRow = mysql_fetch_array($clientRes) && $i < 2)
{
// add current day's event
$out .= "<span class='" . $arr[$i++] . "'>";
$out .= $clientRow["company"];
$out .= "</span";
}
$out .= "</div>" // end day
}
echo $out; // display all week's info
echo "</div>"; // end week

This is what I ended up doing...
function emp_schedule($empID) {
$weeks = array(1, 2, 3, 4);
foreach ($weeks as $i => $week) {
$schedQ = "SELECT * FROM seo_schedule WHERE empID=$empID AND weekSlot=$week";
$Em1WkRes = mysql_query($schedQ) or die(mysql_error());
echo "<div class='week'>";
echo "<div class='head'><span class='ts'>Wk ".$week."</span> <span>Monday</span> <span>Tuesday</span> <span>Wednesday</span> <span>Thursday</span> <span>Friday</span></div>";
echo "<div class='ts'><span><strong>AM</strong></span><span><strong>PM</strong></span></div>";
while ($Em1WkRow = mysql_fetch_array($Em1WkRes)) {
$clientQ = "SELECT * FROM clients WHERE userID='".$Em1WkRow["userID"]."'";
$clientRes = mysql_query($clientQ) or die(mysql_error());
while($clientRow = mysql_fetch_array($clientRes)) {
$schd = "<div class='".$Em1WkRow["timeSlot"]."'>";
$schd .= "<span class='client'>".$clientRow["company"]."</span>";
$schd .= "</div>";
$days = array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5);
foreach ($days as $i => $day) {
if ($Em1WkRow["daySlot"] == $day && $Em1WkRow["timeSlot"] == "am" ) {
echo "<div class='day ".$Em1WkRow["daySlot"]."'>";
echo $schd;
}
if ($Em1WkRow["daySlot"] == $day && $Em1WkRow["timeSlot"] == "pm" ) {
echo $schd;
echo "</div>";
}
}
}
}
echo "</div>";
}
}
Mess I Know but it works.
