Hi that is a code from my view. I want to increment a counter on every loop can i do that? It says variable is not defined since variables are passed from controller to view right? Is there a way i can do it like this?

<?php foreach($articleEntry as $myarticle):?>
<?php
if($ctr==5){
?>
HTML Here
<?php
}
?>

<h3><span><?=$myarticle->title;?><br/>(<?=$myarticle->author;?&gt Wink

on
<?=$myarticle->dateposted;?></span></h3><br/>
<?=auto_link($myarticle->content);?><br/>
<?php
$ctr++;
?>
<?php endforeach ?><br/>

is this possible?

Set up the counter variable outside of the loop and increment it for each pass.

PS You might want to use the [ code ] tag in your posts to make your code more readable.

Code:
$i = 0;

foreach ($articleEntry as $article) {

  $i++;

}

declare $ctr = 0 before forloop

inside forloop .........$ctr++

then check

if($ctr==5)
{
//HTML...............
break ..........for it will come out from forloop

}
