Answer 1

You can do this in one pass,try this

<?php 
          $get_data =mysql_query("...");

          $last_quotaion_request_id = -1;
            while($row = mysql_fetch_array($get_data)){ 
                $quotaion_request_id = $row['quotaion_request_id'];
                $supplier_add_quotaion_id = $row['supplier_add_quotaion_id'];
                $supplier_id = $row['supplier_id'];
                $net_item_value = $row['net_item_value'];
                $vat_item_value = $row['vat_item_value'];
                $total_value = $row['total_value'];
                $quotation_item_id = $row['quotation_item_id'];


                 $get_count = mysql_query("SELECT quotation_item_id FROM supplier_add_quotaion_request_item WHERE quotation_item_id='$quotation_item_id'"); 

                $count = mysql_num_rows($get_count);


                $get_quantity = mysql_query("SELECT quantity_required,item_description FROM clerk_add_quotaion_request_item WHERE quotation_item_id='$quotation_item_id'"); 

                    while($rowB = mysql_fetch_array($get_quantity)){ 
                        $quantity_required = $rowB['quantity_required'];
                        $item_description = $rowB['item_description'];
                    }



            ?>

          <tr>
            <?php if($last_quotaion_request_id != $quotaion_request_id){ ?>
            <td rowspan="<?php echo $count; ?>"><?php echo $item_description; ?></td>
            <td rowspan="<?php echo $count; ?>" align="center"><?php echo $quantity_required; ?></td>
            <?php } ?>
            <td><?php echo $supplier_id; ?></td>
            <td align="center"><?php echo $net_item_value; ?></td>
            <td align="center"><?php echo $vat_item_value; ?></td>
            <td align="center"><?php echo $total_value; ?></td>
          </tr>

          <?php
            $last_quotaion_request_id = $quotaion_request_id;
            }
        ?>
