Introduction to Control Structures

Control structures are some of the coolest things in PHP. They take a lot of the work off of your shoulders and place the burden on the language itself. They are especially useful for making sites where you need to make a page do something over and over again. A simple looping statement, when used correctly, can pull all of that information for you and do it over and over again, thus making a large page like that a breeze. This article explains how to use these control structures and what each should be used for.
