[SOLVED] Increments

[swamp]

Hi I'm having a bit of trouble with this:

 

In my loop I need to add the $i to the session name (eg)

 

$i = 0;

while ($i < 7) {

 

doFunction($_SESSION["item".$i])

 

}

A couple of issues:

 

- You need session_start(); at the top of your script.

- Your loop will result in an infinite loop.

- What is the outcome you're getting and what outcome do you want?

You are never incrementing $i in your loop.

 

$i++

Yeah there is more to my script, my only concern is how to get $i into $_SESSION['item'$i]

The way you have it should work, after you increment your variable of course.  It's also conventional to use single quotes for associative arrays rather than double.

Ah - was incrementing just started $i as 0 instead of 1... Cheers
