Hi,
From mysql, I'm fetching data to populate multiple (8)
HTML tables for each day, the report spanning an unknown
number of dates.  At the moment, each table displays a
maximum number of items (rows) with a daily total of
nearly 900 elements passed to the template with an
array ref.  Works great.

Attempting db normalization, I realize I'll have tables
with an unknown number of items.  So I ask myself, "How
do I know when one table ends and the next begins?"

Each table's data begins with a title: "Category 1",
"Category 2"...  Do I compare each element and act
accordingly?  I don't think so, though it will work.

Do I dump each category into it's own array of array refs
and attempt nested loops?  This is what I'd hoped to do
but I don't think this will work.  I think Category 1
data for all days will be displayed under the first date.

Do I embed the HTML with the data?  Don't know.

I'm going nuts with this.  How do you guys do it?

Thanks in advance,
Jon
