[RESOLVED] Simple foreach loop help....

[sgtpepper]

Hello everyone.

I am trying to figure out how to do the following.

I have a variable that represents a quantity....lets say

$number = 4

I want to be able to write a script that takes that number and loops a MySQL insert statement.

For example......something......like....

If $number = 4 then run the following query 4 times...... if the number = 7 then run the query 7 times, etc.....

Basically, I am building an admin tool for a gift certificate. The admin will know how many gift certificates to create based on the $number.....and it will need to insert each certificate seperately and assign a different ID number.

Hope I explianed this well....and thank you for the help.

Use a for loop.

for($ix = 1; $ix <= $number; $ix++)
{
  // do whatever you need to do on each loop iteration here
}
