modifying 'for... loop ' with php to leave out one number

[Ian Davies]

Hello
Im using the following loop to populate a list box but I dont want th
current selected value (from database) to show in the list
The one I want to omitt is in the variable

$row['bbannerorgfont']

I wish to some how include this in the below loop to the effect of

echo from 0 to 6 except for $row['bbannerorgfont']

VB has select...case... etc. Is there something similar with PHP?

<?
for($i = 0; $i < 7; $i++) {
echo "<option value='".$i+1."'>".$i+1."</option><br>";
}
?>

cheers ian

The PHP equivalent is the Switch statement
See: http://us3.php.net/manual/en/control...res.switch.php

Like:
($i = 0; ($i < 7)&&($i!=$row['bbannerorgfont']); $i++) {....
?

Thans all
I think the switch would be best thanks

No, it's just closest thing to what you've used in VB. A simple if
statement, such as the one suggested by Miquel, would be the _best_ choice.

Hello
I also realised this too and have decides afterall to go with the if
statement by Miquel (THANKS MIQUEL) as there will be less lines of code. Do
you know if there is a performance advantage over the switch method?

Don't care about performance at this level. Just try to do what best suits
your code logic: it's far more important to understand your code several
months after your wrote it.

Typical performance issues are more like:

* Fetching 5000 database records to display the top 5
* Dynamically generating the very same thumbnail every time it's requested
* Loading a full 20MB text file into memory to process it line by line

I expect the 'if' method would be faster as there's less parsing and
testing.

create an array which contains the needed values*, then:

foreach ($array as $foo) {
echo '<option value="$foo">$foo</option>';
}

* or have a default array and remove the unecessary ones.
