PHP - Extracting Data From A Multidimensional Array And Populating Db With The Values

I am trying to get rows from MYSQL table (attachment) based on:

*I did use UNION with two SELECT queries to get whole data as one array.

Now on PHP side...

I have first block for rows having status_id 1 so if there are rows having status_id 1 then PHP should display the data otherwise if there is no row having status_id 1 then PHP should print NO DATA only once.

I have second block for rows having status_id 2 so if there are rows having status_id 2 then PHP should display the data otherwise if there is no row having status_id 2 then PHP should print NO DATA only once.

I did use foreach loop then within loop i did use if condition to check status_id of rows. it works fine when i omit NO DATA part but when i add it. the result shows both rows and NO DATA in first block when there are one or more rows having status_id 1 but no row having status_id 2

Which made me believe that i was doing it the wrong way.

Please guide me

*PS: I know its PHP section the thread should be related to PHP problem but... is it right to use UNION in query? or should i post a new thread in relevant section for guidance?
