[NeverMind]

loops are something useful in PHP
try to use FOR .. that's how is can be used :

PHP Code:

$names=array('NeverMind','tsb','Ryan');

$num=count($names);



for ( $i=1; $i<$num; $i++ ) {

  $counter=$i-1

  echo"$i- $names[$counter] .";

} 

and if you want to use it when you fetch data from databases like MySQL e.g. you need to make sure that mysql_fetch_array() is inside the loop not outside it.. like this :

PHP Code:

$fetch=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table")or

die('couldn\'t excute query: '.mysql_error());



$num=mysql_num_rows($fetch);



for ( $i=1; $i<=$num; $i++ ) {

  $data=mysql_fetch_array($fetch);

  //we put it inside loop not outside it,

  //otherwise it will print the same data through the loop

  

  echo $data['ID'], $data['name']; 

} 

BTW if you want increment of a variable by 1 , you could use $var++ ..
