Laravel loop structure

[jj.dcruz]

I have this code foreach loop it will get the first data form my table every iteration on the next output. I would like to have a guidance on this

<select class="selectpicker form-control" data-live-search="true">

@foreach ($IncidentTypes as $Incident)

<optgroup label="{{ $Incident->incident_type ." ". $Incident->id }}">

@foreach ($Incident->IncidentSubType as $subTypes)
<option>
{{ $subTypes->incident_name . " " . $subTypes->incident_type_id }}
</option>

</optgroup>
@endforeach
@endforeach

</select>

Hello and welcome to DaniWeb! I really wish I could help you, but, while I have a lot of PHP experience, I don't have any experience with Laravel or its templating system.

Does the code you have not work? Is it giving you any errors? I can try to help you debug it if you can explain in what way you're looking for guidance.

on my database tables Incident_Category and Incident_Sub_Category I need to populate the code above regarding the dropdown option on which every set it repeats the first data which is Animal Bite - 1 repeating the label on top would be the main ID on which the child data will be the same number
Medical - ID-1
Animal Bite - ID-1

Police - ID-2
Animal Bite - ID-1 (this should not repeats)
Rape - ID-2

Fire - ID-3
Animal Bite - ID-1 (this should not repeats)
School Fire- ID-3

By the time we get to this template, are the variables $IncidentTypes and $subTypes that are being looped through arrays that contain the correct data? What are the contents of each of them at the time we get to this HTML snippet?

[jj.dcruz]

to answer your question the varialbes on the controller

$IncidentTypes = IncidentType::all();
$IncidentSubTypes = IncidentSubType::all();

I understand that. My question was can you please tell me what those arrays look like. e.g.

array(
    'category' => array(
        'item1',
        'item2'
) etc ...

It seems like the problem you're having is that the data in these arrays is not in the format that your view templates are expecting.
