Question

I have a table called ‘main_table’ with 3 columns :
‘player’, ‘points’ and ‘drop_date’

I have 1 variable ($date) with different values:

$date == '2012-06-01'  
$date == '2012-05-01'  
$date == '2012-04-01'  

I Have 1 MySQL query:

$query = "
  select *
  from main_table
  where `drop_date` > '$date'
    AND `drop_date` <= DATE_ADD('$date', INTERVAL 1 YEAR)
  LIMIT 1
";

GOAL :
I would like to run ONE query with different passes (1pass per value)

I have tried :

<?php
$date['date'] = '2012-06-01';  
$date['date'] = '2012-05-01'; 
$date['date'] = '2012-04-01';

foreach($date as $title => $actual_date) {
  query = "
    select *
    from main_table
    where `drop_date` > '$actual_date'
      AND `drop_date` <= DATE_ADD('$actual_date', INTERVAL 1 YEAR)
    LIMIT 1
  ";
  $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
}

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
  echo $row['Player'];
  echo $row['Points'];
}

Just move your while in the foreach loop.

<?php
$date[0] = '2012-06-01';  
$date[1] = '2012-05-01'; 
$date[2] = '2012-04-01';
foreach($date as $title => $actual_date)
{
    query = "select * from main_table where `drop_date` > '$actual_date' AND `drop_date` <= DATE_ADD('$actual_date', INTERVAL 1 YEAR) LIMIT 1"; 
    $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());

    while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
    {
        echo $row['Player'];
        echo $row['Points'];
    }
}
