Hi,
I have the following code:
<PRE>
<?php
$username = "####t";
$password = "####";
$hostname = "####";
mysql_connect($ hostname, $username, $password) or die("Unable to connect to
MySQL");
print "Connected to MySQL<br>";
mysql_select_db ("database," );
print "Connected to Database<br>";
?>
<?php
$carers = array(
array('name' => 'Carer 01', 'hours' => 10, 'remaining' => 10),
array('name' => 'Carer 02', 'hours' => 12, 'remaining' => 12),
);
$clients = array(
array('name' => 'Client 01', 'hours' => 2),
array('name' => 'Client 02', 'hours' => 3),
array('name' => 'Client 03', 'hours' => 4),
array('name' => 'Client 04', 'hours' => 1),
array('name' => 'Client 05', 'hours' => 2),
array('name' => 'Client 06', 'hours' => 5),
array('name' => 'Client 07', 'hours' => 4),
array('name' => 'Client 08', 'hours' => 2),
array('name' => 'Client 09', 'hours' => 2),
);
$carer_num = 0;
for ($i=0; $i<count($clien ts); $i++) {
$row = $clients[$i];
// If current carer doesn't have enough hours left, move to the next
while ($carer_num < count($carers) && $row['hours'] >
$carers[$carer_num]['remaining'])
$carer_num++;
// No more carers
if ($carer_num == count($carers)) {
break;
}
// Allocate time
$allocated_hour s = min($carers[$carer_num]['remaining'], $row['hours']);
$carers[$carer_num]['clients'][] = array('client' => $row['name'],
'hours' => $allocated_hour s);
$carers[$carer_num]['remaining'] -= $allocated_hour s;
}
print_r($carers );
?>

As you can see, I have two arrays at the start. However I now want the
script to be able to pull the arrays from a database I have already. A basic
schema is here: http://www.monkey-it.co.uk/db_schema.gif Is this possible to
do? The output of the above code can be seen here:

Many thanks,
