Question

I know I have done this in Javascript once, but how can I make it in PHP?
Basically I want to do this:

if (empty($counter)){
   $counter = 1;
}else{
   "plus one to $counter" ($counter++?)
}

But it didn’t work when I tried. How would I go about doing this?

Thank you 🙂

EDIT: This is so I can do:

if ($counter == 10){
   echo("Counter is 10!");
}

EDIT:

This is all in a “while()” so that I can count how many times it goes on, because LIMIT will not work for the query I’m currently doing.

Answer 1

why the extra if into the while?
i would do this:

$counter = 0;
while(...)
{
    (...)
    $counter++;
}

echo $counter;
