Question

I’m trying to catch the last loop in my CodeIgniter for-loop. I’m trying to generate a < hr /> under every news item but the last one. This is my code:

<table class="news">
<?php foreach($news as $news_item): ?>
    <tr>
        <td class="headline"><?php echo $news_item['title']; ?></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td class="text"><?php echo $news_item['text']; ?></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td><hr /></td>
    </tr>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</table>

Answer 1

Уou can try something like this:

<?php for($i = 0, $lastIDX = count($news)-1; $i<=$lastIDX; $i++): ?>
    <!-- html code ... $news_item is $news[$i] now -->
    <? if ($i !== $lastIDX) : ?>
        <tr>
            <td><hr /></td>
        </tr>
    <?php endif; ?>
<?php endfor; ?>

But it would be better to use CSS :last-child selector.
