Hi All,

Go figure... I sat down today to get some more work on my current project; I got to a certain point where I need to step through an array with a foreach loop. I found that I need to test for the current pointer position of the array, but I haven't a clue as to how this might be accomplished. I've been all over google and php.net, but I'm not finding anything that will help me do this.

Basically all I want to do is something like this:

if( current_arrayPointer_postition == n ){
  ... do this
}else{
  ...do this
}

Anyone know of a built-in PHP function that can assist with this, or can you point me to a resource that could help me code a solution?

Try looking at "current"

http://www.php.net/current

Maybe that will help.

Cheers,

Thanks all for the helpful suggestions. Actually Jochem's suggestion was just what I needed. I was stuck at just how to test where the pointer was and couldn't see a way out. I knew there had to be a simple, elegant solution, but apparently was over-thinking it. Jochem put things back into perspective for me.
