a number sequence starting at 0 (query_posts outside loop)

  • Im querying some posts outside the loop. everything going ok. Just cant figure out how to make each post have a number incrementing ~ starting from 0.

    Usually I would just do a $variable++ like below but this code just restarts each instance ><

    example :

    <? query_posts('cat=4&showposts=50'); ?>
<? while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
 <? $img_counter = 0; $img_counter++; ?>
<img class="<? echo $img_counter; ?>" />
<? endwhile;?>

    This just makes each post return class=”1″. Is there a way I can have each come back 0, 1, 2, 3, and so on?

    Any help would be much appreciated!

  • initialize the counter outside before the loop; and increment it after you output it:

    <? query_posts('cat=4&showposts=50'); ?>
<? $img_counter = 0; ?>
<? while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<img class="<? echo $img_counter; ?>" />
<? $img_counter++; ?>
<? endwhile;?>
