Everyone has responded with the correct answer, but you do realize that 
this loop will only run twice? It will print 1, then 6.


If you change it to $i  6, then it will print 1.

And just because its Tuesday, and if you happen to be using PHP 5.0.0+:

$numbers = range(1,100,5);
foreach($numbers as $number)
{
   echo $number.\n;
}

And now, back to your regularly scheduled programming

[PHP] incrementing in a for loop

[Peppy]

I've searched online and am unable to find how to increment by more than one in 
a for loop.

for ($i = 1; $i = 6; $i++) {

Is it possible to increment $i by 5?

Thanks.

Sure.

for ($i = 1; $i = 6; $i+=5) {

this worked for me:

[CODE]
   for ($myLoop = 0; $myLoop  100; $myLoop= $myLoop + 5)
   {
   print Pmy loop: $myLoop;
   }
[/CODE]

that won't work; have you tried it?
Because $i++ assigns the result of $i+1 to $i, while yours does not 
assign anything to $i. This means you'll run an eternal loop ;)

to do what you showed, you'll need to change $i+5 to $i=$i+5 or $i += 5

You are correct -- forgive the typo (I forgot the = ).

That is what I get trying to reply to email while eating a burrito and
talking on the phone. LOL
