Array + Loop

[seaminem]

How to use loop in array?

For example, if I want array that contain 100 years, but I don't want to write $year =array ("1900","1901","1902",...);

Can I use loop in running these numbers in a very simple way?

Thank you

Here is my try, but it doesn't work.

for ($i=1920; $i<2006; $i++)
{
$YearCount[$i] = $i;
$YearCode[$i] = $YearCount[$i];
$YearName[$i] = $YearCount[$i];
}

I'll use this later on for running number in my list box:

<select name="Year" size=1>
<?php
//year
for ($i=0; $i<100; $i++)
{
$SelectNo="";
if ($Year == $YearCode[$i]) $SelectNo="selected";
print "<option value = '$YearCode[$i]' $SelectNo> $YearName[$i]";
}
?>
</select><BR>

Use [man]range/man, e.g.

$year = range(1900, 1999);

If you are using 2006 because thats this years date, its better to do something like (to extend off lasterlight's post):

$year = range(1900, date("Y"));

Which will use the system time's current year: A full numeric representation of a year, 4 digits

As per http://au3.php.net/date

As the upper limit of the array.
