How would I stop this foreach loop after 3 iterations?
php
Solution
With the `break` command.
You are missing a bracket though.
$i=0;
foreach($results->results as $result){
//whatever you want to do here
$i++;
if($i==3) break;
}
More info about the `break` command at: http://php.net/manual/en/control-structures.break.php
Update: As Kyle pointed out, if you want to break the loop it's better to use `for` rather than `foreach`. Basically you have more control of the flow and you gain readability. Note that you can only do this if the elements in the array are contiguous and indexable (as Colonel Sponsz pointed out)
The code would be:
for($i=0;$i<3;$i++){
$result = $results->results[i];
//whatever you want to do here
}
It's cleaner, it's more bug-proof (the control variables are all inside the `for` statement), and just reading it you know how many times it will be executed. `break` / `continue` should be avoided if possible.
Problem
Here is the loop. ``` foreach($results->results as $result){ echo '<div id="twitter_status">'; echo '<img src="'.$result->profile_image_url.'" class="twitter_image">'; $text_n = $result->text; echo "<div id='text_twit'>".$text_n."</div>"; echo '<div id="twitter_small">'; echo "<span id='link_user'".'<a href="http://www.twitter.com/'.$result->from_user.'">'.$result->from_user.'</a></span>'; $date = $result->created_at; $dateFormat = new DateIntervalFormat(); $time = strtotime($result->created_at); echo "<div class='time'>"; print sprintf('Submitted %s ago', $dateFormat->getInterval($time)); echo '</div>'; echo "</div>"; echo "</div>"; ```
