I’m hoping a loop can replace several lines of code…

I need to echo out 20 usernames onto a form and I currently have 20 lines like this:

[CODE]<input type=”text” id=”userName1″ class=”userInfo” value=”<?php echo $userName1; ?>” />
<input type=”text” id=”userName2″ class=”userInfo” value=”<?php echo $userName2; ?>” />
.
.
<input type=”text” id=”userName20″ class=”userInfo” value=”<?php echo $userName20; ?>” />[/CODE]

I’m wondering if some kind of loop could replace all those lines. Can someone please share some advice & examples?

<i>
</i>$userName1 = "Bob";
$userName2 = "Jane";
for ($i = 1;$i &lt;= 2;++ $i)
{
$v = "userName$i";
echo "&lt;input type="text" id="$v" class="userInfo" value="${$v}" /&gt;";
}

@ssystemsJan 27.2012 — Depends on how you store the original data. Here is a sample if you stored it in an array

[code=php]
foreach($usernames as $key=>$value)
<input type="text" id="username<?php echo $key; ?>" class="userInfo" value="<?php echo $value; ?>" />
[/code]

Success!
