Let's look at that.
In the first case you're doing a foreach loop on an array entitled $entry (single) using a variable entitled the same name representing the values in each element of the array -- that doesn't make sense even if it works or is recommended by Zend Studio. That would be a hell of a bug to find.
In the second case, I find the syntax more correct. You are doing a foreach loop on an array entitled $entries (plural) using the values contained in the array as $entry (single) -- that makes much more sense to me.
