PHP CurrentRow

[Guest]

I have been trying to find out how to do a PHP "CurrentRow". I know in Coldfusion if you have so many records lets say 5 records it lists as the following below...

Rec | Name |
---------------------
1 | George |
2 | Fred |

Is there a php funching like Coldfusion that counts the rows for you as the "Rec" listing above.


Thank you,

There is no particular function, but you simply set a variable as a
counter and display that.

Dreamweaver uses a do... while loop to display a repeat region, so you
need to initialize the counter outside the loop, and then increment it
inside like this:

$counter = 1;
do {
// this is your repeat region
// use the following line to display and increment the counter
echo $counter++;
} while ($row_recordsetName = mysql_fetch_assoc($recordsetName));

The increment operator (++) adds 1 to the number after displaying it.

It is not working for me. My recordset is the following...
rsUsers
userID
userName
emailAddress
firstName
lastName
date
userType

Here is the code below to show how I have placed it. In the table data I had placed words of "Record Count" that is the area I believe where the count should begin.

Thank you for all of your help.

<?php $counter = 1; ?>
<?php do { ?>
<tr bgcolor="#D6EFF8"
onmouseover="this.style.backgroundColor='#98B6D1'"
onmouseout="this.style.backgroundColor='#D6EFF8'">
<td>Record Count: <?php echo $counter++; ?></td>
