RE: [PHP] Foreach question
And that's exactly how I did it :)
Since 'for' is traditionally pre-testing with excetuting the condition prior
looping it's working well :)
Thanks for all the help!

Just use count($arr) in your for-header, as it get's executed again
for each loop.
1), array('id'=>2));
for($i=0;$i $arr[$i]['id']+1);
}

Ok, so the extents are being updated on each pass of the loop :)

Looking at the implementation of foreach in the source, the pointer to the
next item in the array is calculated after evaluating the condition but
before executing that loop. Thus, with a single array element it decides
it's at the end of the array before the first loop. My C is a little rusty
so I might have the details slightly wrong, but that's the crux of what's
happening.
Whether that's normal and expected or a bug is one of the internals team,
but my guess is that it's a "feature" rather than a bug.

Given that you seem to want the above functionality obtained when more
than one element exists in the input array... the simplest way (I can
bother to think up) to achieve what you want with little extra work is
to do the following:

Ahhh... you want the behaviour of the multiple elements... I presumed

You're making an assumption that it is checking the count. It may just
be pre-determining whether another element exists for the next
iteration. Consider the following pseudo code:
nextItem = items->reset();
while( nextItem )
{
item = nextItem;
nextItem = items->next();
// Do stuff.
}
There's lots of ways to program a loop... and your PHP foreach loop is
being converted to something entirely different internally. The above
doesn't count elements, but it will result in the same behaviour as you
are experiencing.

Rob.

Re: [PHP] Foreach question
I don't think that it does this: if ( count($elements) == 1 ) then loop 1; else loop normally; It's probably more something like that: $i=count($elements); loop: $i--; if($i == 0) $last_loop = true; else $last_loop = false if($last_loop) exit; else goto loop; But aside from that, I would propose you the same thing Robert already did - Just use while or some other loop (for maybe?). -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

What troubles me, that foreach gives an inconsistent working. Why is 'foreach'

if ( count($elements) == 1 ) then loop 1;

Tried, gives the same result with one element :(
What's working:
$cats = array( array( 'id' => 1 ) );
while ( $c = array_shift($cats) ) {
echo $c['id'];
if ( $c['id'] < 5 ) {
$c['id']++;
$cats[] = $c;
}
}
But this is 'while' and it pops all elements from the array...

Re: [PHP] Foreach question
Hi there
I think that foreach in your first example just knowns that this
should be the last loop (as the array only contains 1 element at
start) and so stops there.
In your 2nd example however the first loop isn't the last, so the
array get's checked again, and now there's another element, so...
I think that's more or less normal behaviour.
Sincerely yours
Louis

You're missing mysql_fetch_array(), mysql_fetch_assoc(), or

You're missing mysql_fetch_array(), mysql_fetch_assoc(), or
something of the like.
Example:
$v) {
$random[$k] = $v;
}
// code
}

This is assuming $key starts at 0 and increments by 1 each

However, if you can't assume that, just have a separate counter:

very good idea.
It also assumes that the array in numerically indexed and corresponds
to the value you expect. The counter is safer.

HI,
I'm working with an associative array, and generating its data a form. I use
foreach to loops the contents of the array and echo to print the table and
the data. Everything goes well, however I would like to add a counter to
print the row's number.
The question : Am I able to add a counter within foreach to print the row
number in each row using echo ?. I tried a few things but I couldn't.
Thanks!

The mind boggles when wondering what you tried.
$counter = 1;
foreach ($array as $val)
{
// Do your stuff here
// Increment the counter
$counter++;

I solved it using this :

Re: [PHP] Foreach question
Yes, I made a mistake in the first sentence.
The code is :
[...]
foreach ($equipos as $key => $val){
echo "";
echo "1" . ""; // I would like to add the counter here reeplacing
"1"
print "" . "";
echo $key . "";
print "" . "";
echo $val . "";
print "" . "";
}
?>
I use the array to generate the name of the radio and so on. However I had
problems with the counter.

Unless your VALUE has "item1\nitem2\nitem3\nitem4\nitem5" in it, I
don't how this could happen...

Gotcha! A textarea does not produce an array. Even though the user
should be separating the lines with a line break, this turns into one
long string with line breaks in it, not separate array elements. You
will have to do this manually. Actually, you could probably use nl2br
to insert BR's before the line breaks (it doesn't replace them, but
that's usually good enough).

Silly question, perhaps, but are you sure $_POST is an array (with 5
elements)? What you have written should produce a break after each
item if POST is a 5 element array. However if POST is a single

Your code is fine and it should work.
but in any case, try:
foreach ($_POST as $key){
echo $key . '';
}
Also, what php version, and what browser are you using?
