Joining table data - mysql

Question

I have a table of:
id title type expl bubble_content onfocus req dorder label mirror
1 Fullname 1 1 Your fullname Yes 0 0 0 NULL
Then another table of:
id fieldid relid dorder
4 1 2 0
5 1 1 0
How would I join the two tables so that the result would be something like:
0 => array(
'id' => 1,
'title' => 'Fullname',
.... etc ....
'relid' => 2,
'relid' => 1),
1 => array(
.... etc ....
))
I've tried using INNER JOIN / LEFT JOIN but this produces two rows/arrays for each relid, I would really like all the data for the particular fieldid to exist within the same array, as illustrated above.

Answer 1

You can't have 2 keys with the same name in an array. On your example you have 2 'relid', the second one will overwrite the first.
You can code PHP so that it merges those rows into one:
$output = array();
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
// Capture all values for this row first.
// If this is the new row from the first table, store.
if (!isset($output[$row['id']]))
{
$output[$row['id']] = $row;
// Make a new array for relids.
$output[$row['id']]['relids'] = array();
}
$output[$row['id']]['relids'][] = $row['relid'];
}
Your output array will look like this:
0 => array(
'id' => 1,
'title' => 'Fullname',
.... etc ....
'relids' => array(2, 1),
1 => array(
.... etc ....
))
