Question

I have put together the following code, the problem is that each while loop is only returning one set of data.

$result = mysql_query("SELECT date FROM ".TBL_FIXTURES." WHERE compname = '$comp_name' GROUP BY date");
    $i = 1;
    echo "<table cellspacing=\"10\" style='border: 1px dotted' width=\"300\" bgcolor=\"#eeeeee\">";
    while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) 
    {
        $date=date("F j Y", $row['date']);
        echo $date;

        echo "
        <tr>
        <td>Fixture $i - Deadline on $date</td>
        </tr>
        ";
        $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM ".TBL_FIXTURES." WHERE compname = '$comp_name' AND date = '$row[date]' ORDER BY date");
        while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
        {
            extract ($row);
            echo "
            <tr>
            <td>$home_user - $home_team V $away_user - $away_team</td>
            </tr>
            ";
        }
        $i++;

    }
    echo "</table>";

I should get many dates, and then each set of fixture below.
At the moment, the first row from the first while loop is present, along with the data from the second while loop.

However, it doesn’t continue?
Any ideas where I can correct this?
Thanks

Replace
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM ".TBL_FIXTURES." WHERE compname = '$comp_name' AND date = '$row[date]' ORDER BY date");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
with

  $result1 = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM ".TBL_FIXTURES." WHERE compname = '$comp_name' AND date = '$row[date]' ORDER BY date");  
  while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result1))`

What happens with your current code is that after executing internal while, next call (in external loop)to mysql_fetch_assoc($result) always returns false (because you just iterated through it in internal loop). All you need is to use a different variable in internal loop.
