using for inside a variable? possible?

listenmirndt

Hi all, I am trying to code something like this :

$os = "$and OS_1 = '$_SESSION[OS]'" . for ($i = 2; $i <= 10; $i++) { " || OS_$i = '$_SESSION[OS]'" . } "";

But I am getting and error, I am not sure if you can actually do what I am trying to do here... but if anyone has some advice, it would be much appreciated!

Thanks

No, you can't embed a statement inside an expression.

$os = "$and OS_1 = '$_SESSION[OS]'";
for ($i = 2; $i <= 10; $i++) { $os .= " || OS_$i = '$_SESSION[OS]'";  }

... and if that's an SQL query being built, then the schema doesn't look very normalised - which if it had been would have obviated the need to write this thing in the first place.
