if(is_array($cats)) {

    foreach($cats as $cat) {

      if(is_array($categorys[$cat['categoryID']])) {
	  
            foreach($categorys[$cat['categoryID']] as $category) {

			if(is_array($categorys[$category['categoryID']])) {

				foreach ($categorys[$category['categoryID']] as $subcat){

					$subcat['product'] = $product[$subcat['categoryID']];
					$subprod[] = $subcat; //have tryed using parent $subprod[$subcat['parent']] but it over rides it self each time

				}
			}
		 $category['product'] = $product[$category['categoryID']];

             $category['subcategory'] = $subprod; // here is where I'm having problem
		 $this_category[] = $category;
            }
        }
	if(!empty($this_category)){
		$ncategory[]    = array($cat,$this_category);
	}
$this_category        = array();
    }

  
}
print_r($ncategory);
