RE: PHP & smarty - nested queries and arrays

First I'll appologize for the cheuvanistic remark the other poster had. I
know he had good intentions...

So I don't know smarty, but it seems to me you're grabbing only one row
here:
$projects = $db->getAssoc()

Normally in straight PHP, I would do something like.

While ($row = $db->getAssoc($query, DB_FETCHMODE_ASSOC))
{
	$projects[] = $row;
}

The [] just adds a new element to the array and is dumping in the entire
$row array to it.
Ala, multi-dimensional array.

Then I would do something like:

foreach ($projects as $key => $value)
{
	echo "[".$key."] has a name value of ".$value['project_name'];	
}

Remember that you have a multi-array in $projects, so that's why I split it
into the key/value pair where value is actually another array, and you
access the elements via it's hash key.

Hope this helps.
