Kinda new to this, but I've been puttering/writing for about 3 weeks now and have some good working screens up. Ran into something new while I was debuggina script today. Tried to echo the $i value within a for loop as part of the list of items I was building Something like for ($i=0;$i<$rows;$i++)

     echo $i.' '.$row['itemname'];

I expected to see : 1 item1 2 item2 ... ... but instead I got 1 item1 f item2 Yes - an 'f' and not a 2. Tried it some more with this: for ($i=1;$i<10;$i++)

     echo $i." item".'<br>';

and got c item d item e item f item g item .... and so on. It seems that I can only output the value of $i if I output a string in front of it echo ' '.$i; works fine but echo $i; does not. Any ideas?

If off your subject a bit; but, I suggest using $i=0; foreach($row as $value) { echo "$i $value<br />\n"; $i++; }
