Questions regarding <dl> in CI.

[eluser]überfuzz[/eluser]
How should I display a <dl>-list in a view-file? I'm very fond of dl-tags and rather new with CI.

I've got a method in a model that fetches rows from a sql-table. With my limited knowledge of CI I take out the result in an array. (Could it be done with result()? I'm used to fall back on arrays etc when I feel unsure.) In the controller calling the get-method I have to tinker with the array.
sql-array from model:

Code:

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [when] => 2008
            [what] => Lorem ipsum...
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [when] => 2008
            [what] => Lorem ipsum...
        )

    [2] => Array
        (
            [when] => 2009
            [what] => Lorem ipsum...
        )

    [3] => Array
        (
            [when] => 2009
            [what] => Lorem ipsum...
        )

    [4] => Array
        (
            [when] => 2009
            [what] => Lorem ipsum...
        )
)

The array altered by the controller:

Code:

Array
(
    [2008] => Array
        (
            [0] => Lorem ipsum...
            [1] => Lorem ipsum...
        )

    [2009] => Array
        (
            [0] => Lorem ipsum...
            [1] => Lorem ipsum...
            [2] => Lorem ipsum...
        )

)

This is to be able to echo out a nice <dl>-tag, like this one:

Code:

<dl class="nice_dl">

        <dt>2008</dt>

        <dd>Lorem ipsum...</dd>
        <dd>Lorem ipsum...</dd>

        <dt>2009</dt>
        <dd>Lorem ipsum...</dd>
        <dd>Lorem ipsum...</dd>
        <dd>Lorem ipsum...</dd>
    </dl>

Could my sql-array be rendered in a better way? How should I muster the output in the view-file. Right now I'm using a foreach-loop.
