count() multidimensional array

I have a multidimensional array being created by a form. Most fields are pre-populated with a few that people can add to the list. There is a box beside each row that they can check whether that item is in or not. My code to list only the rows that were checked is this.. for ($j=1 ; $j=5; $j++) { for ($i=0 ; $i<count($check[$j]) ; $i++) { if ($check[$j][$i] == "1")//was boxed checked? { $message .= "$pre[$j][$i]. .$post[$j][$i]. .$name[$j][$i]. .$city[$j][$i]. .$state[$j][$i]\n"; } } } This code is creating an endless loop and times out the server with memory overruns. What am I missing?
