I can't help you with the while loop, but foreach loops are very nice to work with. It took me a while to figure it out as well.
You can use the foreach to loop through all the instances of an array. This works best when you have an associative array ($state['CA'] = "Sacremento", $state['OR'] = "Salem", etc.) foreach ($state as $abbreviation => $capital) The above foreach statement takes the index of state and assigns it to $abbreviation, while it takes the actual value and assigns it to $capital. The process is repeated for each instance of $state. Hope this helps.
