I'm doing a project where the database was designed before me and they don't have a budget for a database re-design. There are two entity tables which /should/ have been the same model with some meta-fields keyed off a type field, but it's not. It's two tables, which should be displayed intermixed, paged, and sorted by date. The solution I thought up didn't do the trick. I: - made two pagers, one for each table - got the current page's set - intermixed them by making an array of references, keyed off the datetime string, refering to items in both result sets - krsort()ed the intermixed array The result is probably obvious, but I'll explain it anyway... there is nowhere near an equal density in entries-per-date between the two tables, and so, each page shows results from both tables, but the dates for the two models on the same page are very different; on page 1, i'll get items from tableA with dates ranging 10/5/2007-10/9/2007 and tableB with dates ranging from 10/13/2007 12:00:00 to 10/13/2007 at 15:00:00. So I'm thinking I need to find a way to align the results, and it needs to happen somehow in the pagers themselves (this being symfony, the pager grabs the query criteria object and sets limit and offset for you.) I am already generating pager links based on the resultset with the most pages; so artificially generating page links won't be a far step. The only solution I've thought up, I don't want to do, which is to break the query into dates e.g. if the date range is 2007-10-01 to 2007-10-31, I do not want a separate pager link for each date which then subpages the results or shows all results for that date; the date range might span years and there might be hundreds of entries for a date. I need a single pager which aligns the two tables' entries' dates in each page of results throughout the span. I am very open to a ready-made class that can do this, especially if it's based on Propel, or if it can take raw sql queries. Thoughts?
