[FX.php List] Creating summaries on the fly,

[Dale Bengston]

You could even make an array that goes something like this:

$cars = array();

foreach ($recs as $key => $value)
	{
	$cars[$value['make'][0]]['count']++;
	$cars[$value['make'][0]][$value['model'][0]]['count']++;
	}

Do a print_r($cars) and see what you have to work with...
