This looks fine to me. Although you might want to use an $i that gets
incremented instead of the customer IDs.

Not sure I understand what is going on......Could you post the code?
It's kind of hard to troubleshoot code I can't see.
However, I can offer this suggestion. Check your syntax. Make sure
your loops have double equal signs, and be sure that the while loop
has a way of moving on in the records. (I didn't see anything like
that in the outline)
Also, you might want to try adding some echo statements in at the
various steps that output what is going to happen on the next line of
code. That way you can see what it's doing, and how many times it's
doing it. Even output the data in the table with a print_r to make
sure the data PHP has is the data you want it to loop through. Adding
output to troubleshoot your code is always a good thing to do.
Take two of these and call me in the morning. That is, try this
stuff, and if you can fix it, great. If not, reply WITH CODE POSTED
and I'll be happy to tell you what I can, and I'm sure others will be
too.
