while loop for multiple arrays

Hi I have 3 separate arrays with the exact same number of values - say 4.

eg.

array 1 = a,b,c,d
array 2 = red,blue,green,yellow
array 3 = jan,feb,mar,apr

is there a way I can loop through the values of all three arrays at once? as I need to construct an SQL insert statement for each value

$query = insert a,red,jan
$query = insert b,blue,feb
.
.
.

Does that make sense?

I can loop through each one at a time like this:

while ( list($key, $val) = each($array1) ) {

//make query in here

}

But that's not going to work, I need to loop thorugh all 3 arrays at once. any ideas?

Use a for loop 🙂

for($i = 0; $i < count($array1); $i++) {

echo $array1[$i];
echo $array2[$i];
echo $array3[$i];
}

😃

now look what you've done!

I look like an idiot 😉

thank you very much, that's great.
