I was going to say this even before you added the trim() calls in , but this
really does look like an excellent situation for using the switch construct
(just look at all those trim() calls and array accesses you save!):


while($cols=ifx_fetch_row($eventQuery)) 
{
  switch (trim($cols['out_type']))
  {
    case '0': 
      $r_away['linetype']='L';
      $r_home['linetype']='L';
      break;
  
    case '1':
      $r_away['linetype']='H';
      $r_home['linetype']='H';
      break;
  }
  
  switch (trim($cols["s_acro"]))
  {
    case 'CF':
    case 'PF': 
      $r_away['sport']='1';
      $r_home['sport']='1';
      $s_lt='PS';
      $t_lt='TP';
      break;

    case 'PB':
    case 'CB':
      $r_away['sport']='2';
      $r_home['sport']='2';
      $s_lt='PS';
      $t_lt='TP';
      break;

    case 'B':
      $r_away['sport']='3';
      $r_home['sport']='3';
      $s_lt='ML';
      $t_lt='TM';
      break;
   
    case 'H':
      $r_away['sport']='4';
      $r_home['sport']='4';
      $s_lt='ML';
      $t_lt='TM';
      break;
  }

Cheers!
