Note Submitter: ratfactor at gmail dot com ---- **Apologies. Please ignore or remove my previous note. This version allows for false values in the array.** In the rare need for look-ahead and look-behind ability while looping through an array, you can use prev(), next() and current() like so: <?php $nums = array('a','b','c',false,'e', 'f'); for(reset($nums), $i=0; $n=current($nums), key($nums)!==null; next($nums), $i++){ // look behind $behind=' '; if($i>0){ $n=prev($nums); $behind=$n; $n=next($nums); } // look ahead $ahead=' '; next($nums); if(key($nums)!==null){ $ahead=current($nums); } prev($nums); echo "$i: $behind $n $ahead\n"; } ?> Results: 0: a b 1: a b c 2: b c 3: c e 4: e f 5: e f
