variables, semicolons, and brackets

<?php
// ...
for($x=($piccies=(scandir("upld194")))) // line 22
// ...
?>

 

Produces:

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')', expecting ';' in C:\xampp\htdocs\new\index.php on line 22

 

And I can't, for the life of me, work out where to put the stuff.

 

Halp, please.

while?

 

for expects at least 3 expressions to be passed

 

something like

 

$i=0; $i<$end; $i++

 

what are you trying to do?

Well, I would advise against putting all that on one line as it is not easy to read and undersand what is going on. It might be when you are writing it, but for an outsider or yourself going through it at a later date it may be more difficult.

 

The problem, I believe, is that you are using a for loop instead of a foreach loop. A for loop takes three parameters separated by a semicolon. You are dealing with an array, so you want a foreach loop. Try this:

 

foreach(scandir("upld194") as $x)

That was the problem, thanks.
