I'm absolutely guessing on this one, but maybe in the second case $year
isn't equal to $show

Try dumping $show and $year

I suspect the code would be more efficient as:

if ($year==$show)
foreach ($six0 as $item)
echo "<div>{$item['track']}</div>";

1) Your code is checking $year against $show on every iteration of the
foreach loop, although neither of these variables is altered inside the
loop. Under these conditions, it makes more sense to do the comparison
outside the loop, and skip the whole loop if they don't match.

2) Having allocated the array data to $item, it is probably more
efficient to use it directly than to reference it as $six0[$itemkey],
which requires an array lookup.

I'm sure you will dismiss these points as pedantry, but pedantry such as
this equates to money in the real world of sizing server farms for the
server load.

Also, how many times do we have to point out to you that giving us links
to the output of the script doesn't really help us work out what you
screwed up.
