How to display multiple categories and products underneath each category?
- by shin
Generally there is a category menu and each link to a category page where shows all the items under that category.
Now I need to show all the categories and products underneath with PHP/MySQL in the same page.
So it will be like this.
Category 1
description of category 1
item 1
item 2
..
Category 2
description of category 2
item 5
item 6
..
Category 3
description of category 3
item 8
item 9
...
...
I have category and product table in my database.
But I am not sure how to proceed.
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `omc_product` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`name` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
`shortdesc` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
`longdesc` text NOT NULL,
`thumbnail` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
`image` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
`product_order` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,
`class` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
`grouping` varchar(16) DEFAULT NULL,
`status` enum('active','inactive') NOT NULL,
`category_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
`featured` enum('none','front','webshop') NOT NULL,
`other_feature` enum('none','most sold','new product') NOT NULL,
`price` float(7,2) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=2 ;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `omc_category` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`name` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
`shortdesc` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
`longdesc` text NOT NULL,
`status` enum('active','inactive') NOT NULL,
`parentid` int(11) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=2 ;
I will appreciate your help.
Thanks in advance.
