Incrementing number within WP_Query?

    Hey everybody,

    I’m setting up a photo gallery for my WordPress site, and for navigation purposes I need to increment a link’s data-slide-index value by 1 for every post.

    So far nothing I’ve tried as worked, and I suspect it’s because I’m using multiple loops on the page via WP_Query.

    Here’s my loop. Can anybody tell me what I need to do here?

    <?php $photo_thumbs = new WP_Query('post_type=photo-gallery&posts_per_page=100&order=DESC');
while ($photo_thumbs->have_posts()) : $photo_thumbs->the_post(); ?>
<div class="thumb">
<span class="mid"><a data-slide-index="VALUE TO BE INCREMENTED" href=""><?php the_post_thumbnail('photos_thumbnails'); ?></a></span>
</div>
<?php
endwhile;
wp_reset_postdata();
wp_reset_query();
?>

    Thanks!

    <?php $photo_thumbs = new WP_Query('post_type=photo-gallery&posts_per_page=100&order=DESC');
$c = 0;
while ($photo_thumbs->have_posts()) : $photo_thumbs->the_post(); $c++; ?>
<div class="thumb">
<span class="mid"><a data-slide-index="<?php echo $c;?>" href=""><?php the_post_thumbnail('photos_thumbnails'); ?></a></span>
</div>
<?php
endwhile;
wp_reset_postdata();
wp_reset_query();
?>
