loops inside loops.....

[mkosmosports]

Hey,

I have this loop:
    foreach($result3arr as $value)
    {
    $tname = $value['quickname'];
    $tid = $value['teamid'];
    $sdate = $value['sdate'];
    if($sdate > "$seasonbeg-07-01" && $sdate < "$seasonbeg-07-20")
    {
    echo("<div class=\"teamlist\"><a href=\"mainstats.html?l=2&team=$tid\" alt=\"\">$tname</a></div>");
    }
    else if($sdate > "$seasonbeg-09-01" && $sdate < "$seasonbeg-09-20")
    {
    echo("<div class=\"teamlist\"><a href=\"mainstats.html?l=2&team=$tid\" alt=\"\">$tname</a></div>");
    }
    }

What I would want to do is put the echos inside the condition in certain html tags, but those tages should only appear once per condition, so something like
                        echo("<div>"); <---this needs to run only once though
    if($sdate > "$seasonbeg-07-01" && $sdate < "$seasonbeg-07-20")
    {
    echo("<div class=\"teamlist\"><a href=\"mainstats.html?l=2&team=$tid\" alt=\"\">$tname</a></div>");
    }
                        echo("</div>"); <---this needs to run only once though

Is this even possible?

Any help appreciated!

umm.. just echo it outside of the loop..

[code]<?php

echo "<div>\n";
foreach (/* ... */)
{
    // etc
}
echo "</div>\n";

?>[/code]

The thing is though, it needs to stay inside the foreach loop. Except I want it to only run once...

[Jenk]

No, it doesn't need to stay inside the loop.

lol that's logically impossible. It doesn't need to, what Jenk posted is right.

[mkosmosports]

:)..I know it doesnt "need" to stay inside the loop, but Id like it too. Id just want to put the echos in the condition in div tags that only appear once.

What Im trying to avoid is writing multiple foreach loops. I wanna write just one...

I guess its impossible though. I was thinking there might be some kind of array function....

[Jenk]

you still only have one foreach. The echo's are simply outside the loop.

Damn, looks like I confused you guys a little....:P...my apologies...
echo("<div class=\"teamlistcupcontainer\">");
    foreach($result3arr as $value)
    {
    $tname = $value['quickname'];
$tallowed = $value['linkable'];
    $tid = $value['teamid'];
    $sdate = $value['sdate'];
    if($sdate > "$seasonbeg-07-21" && $sdate < "$seasonbeg-08-01")
    {
    echo("<div class=\"teamlist\"><a href=\"mainstats.html?l=2&team=$tid\" alt=\"\">$tname</a></div>");
    }
echo("</div>");

The above loop contains an if condition and the results of it are inside div class teamlistcupcontainer. I have 3 more conditions to write for this loop, and I need them to also be inside div class teamlistcupcontainer. Logically, I would need to write 3 more foreach loops, but Im asking if this is something I can avoid this somehow....

If they need to be in seperate div's, they need to be in seperate loops. If they need to be in the same div's, they need to be in the same loop.

Ok, fair enough. That makes sense. Thanks Jenk and Jesirose!
