Hi all,

Say I have an object like

array
    schoolName => string
    board => array
         string
         string

I generally create  two MySql tables

schools: id PRIMARY KEY, SchoolName
boards: id FOREGIN KEY refers Table A(id), board

and then do two selects. The problem is that, the number of selects
increase as the number of one-to-many relationships increase.

Is there a better way to do this ? I have to extend an existing code
so I cannot use any libraries like doctrine

Kranthi.
