What is in the huge list?...
Actually...
If your organization and/or its budget positions is at all large, this is
an incredibly inefficient way to do it.
You're hammering your database with query after query, and you are using
PHP to do all the iteration and ordering.
SQL was *designed* to handle large amounts of data efficiently.
You would be better served with something not unlike:
$query = "select boOrgId, boOrgName, bpPositionID ";
$query .= " from BudgetedOrganization, BudgetedPosition ";
$query .= " where BudgetedOrganization.boOrgID =
BudgetedPosition.bp_boOrgID ";
$query .= " order by boSuperiorOrgID ";
$rs = $this->retrieveData($query);
if ($rs){
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($rs)){
//Store $row in your array or whatever you want to do with it.
}
}
