[RESOLVED] looping thru array

[fxpepper]

hi guys,

can you please help me with this loop:

	$cat_array = array('Music Festival','Theatre');
	$count = count($cat_array);

	for($j = 0; $j < $count; $j++) {
		echo "<ul class=\"pods\">";	
		createNewsSections($cat_array[j]);	
		echo "</ul>";
	}

it's creating the ul tags in html but the function (createNewsSections) isn't working unless the value is hardcoded...

Can you please help?

thanks

This:

$cat_array[j]

says to use the constant j for the array index. Assuming that this constant has never been defined, PHP will emit an error message and then assuming you meant the string 'j'.

Neither of these, however, is what you want; you probably want to use the variable $j instead.
