counting attachments and inserting breaks…

Hi, thanks for reading this.

I’ve been using this handy script from digital mash to keep horizontally gridded posts nicely lined up for a while now. It basically inserts a clearing break every 5 posts, or how ever many you choose.

However, in a current project, I’m using the attachment toolbox described here to display images and descriptions in a horizontal grid with five columns.

Problem is I can’t combine the two, because the attachment system uses a foreach loop instead of the standard $post loop.

Here’s my code so far:

<?php
function attachment_toolbox($size = thumbnail) {

	if($images = get_children(array(
		'post_parent'    => get_the_ID(),
		'post_type'      => 'attachment',
		'numberposts'    => -1, // show all
		'post_status'    => null,
		'post_mime_type' => 'image',
	))) {

		echo '<br class="clearboth" /><h3>Other Editions:<h3><ul class="otherEds">';

		foreach($images as $image) {
			$attimg   = wp_get_attachment_image($image->ID,$size);
			$atturl   = wp_get_attachment_url($image->ID);
			$attlink  = get_attachment_link($image->ID);
			$postlink = get_permalink($image->post_parent);
			$atttitle = apply_filters('the_title',$image->post_title);
			$attcontent = ($image->post_content);

			echo '<li class="onecolfive left fivecolmargin"><div class="bookimage">'.$attimg.'</div>';
			echo '<p>'.$atttitle.'</p>';
			echo '<p>'.$attcontent.'</p></li>';

		}

		echo '</ul>';
	}
}
?>

If any body knows how I could modify this to insert a clearing break every 5 attachments, I’d be really pleased to learn.

Thanks!

J
