Are you incrementing number_of_days anywhere within the loop?

It looks like you have an infinite loop running. If you want to be able to
move to the next date, increment you date variable.

Subject: [PHP] need help breaking out of loop.


Hi,

 I'm working of a PHP-MySQL-planning system for a newspaper. I want to add
dates and number for each issue. I have to following code, where
$current_date is a unix timestamp.

 If $current_date is a Saturday or Sunday, I want to quit the current
execution of the loop and contiune with the next date. But when the if-
clause that checks if $issue_day_of_week is Sunday or Saturday is included
in my while-loop, everything stalls. Without it, everything goes smooth.

 What am I missing?

while ($i <= $number_of_days)
        {
                $issue_date = strftime("%Y-%m-%d", $current_date);
                $issue_month = date("m", $current_date);
                $issue_day = date("d", $current_date);
                $issue_day_of_week = date("l", $current_date);

                // Check that $issue_date isn't Saturday or Sunday

                if ($issue_day_of_week == "Sunday" | $issue_day_of_week == "Saturday")
                {
                        continue;
                }

                if ($issue_month == 1 & $issue_day == 1)
                {
                        $issue_number = 1;
                        $current_date = $current_date + 86400;
                        $i++;
                        $issue_number++;
                        continue;
                }
                $current_date = $current_date + 86400;
                $i++;
                $issue_number++;
        }
