PHP implode?

I'm not quite sure which function to use when I want to add a comma to
the end of every line and a semi colon to the last one. Because it
generates everything on the fly I can't count the rows from a db.
Here's what I want to do:

red, <--Comma
green, <--Comma
blue, <--Comma
orange; <--Last one so semi colon

Any help is greatly appreciated

How do you know when you reach the last one?

Why can't you count the rows? I need a little more info, but assuming
you have all the lines in an array; from the example given for implode()
in the manual:

$array = array('lastname ', 'email', 'phone');
$comma_separate d = implode(",", $array);

then simply:
$comma_separate d .=";"

How about adding a comma at the end of every row and then after it is
all done do a string replace for the last character?
