Having problems with getting arrays into arrays for json-encode

heres the function: http://pastebin.com/tQLjzzbH

I want it to return this:

{"years":[
    {
        "yName":"2011",
        "yAlbums:[
            {
                auID:"1234",
                aID:"456",
                etc..
            },
            {
                auID:"12345",
                aID:"4567",
                etc..
            }
    },
    {
        "yName":"2010",
        "yAlbums:[
            {
                auID:"2234",
                aID:"556",
                etc..
            }
    }
]}

but its only returning this:

{"years":[
{"yName":"2011"},
{"yName":"2010"}]}

Been trying to get this for ages, am totally lost now. Some help wo开发者_高级运维uld be appreciated.

Thanks.

You have read your result to the very end by

while($data2 = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
    $yearsArrayRaw[] = $data2['album_year'];
}

Add mysql_data_seek($result,0) before inner while, to line 36. Also, I would suggest rewriting this function to have single loop, using something like

$year_albums= array();
while ($data = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
    if (empty($years[$data['album_year']])){
        $year_albums[$data['album_year'] = array(
            'yName'=>$data['album_year'],
            'yAlbums'=>array()
        );
     }
     //...album creation logic here...//
     $year_albums[$data['album_year']['yAlbums'][] = $album;
}
//Converting arrays into objects
$years = array();
foreach ($year_albums as $year){
    $years[] = (object)$year;
}
json_encode($years);
