Name
next
Synopsis
mixed next(array array)Increments the internal pointer to the element after the
current element and returns the value of the element to which the
internal pointer is now set. If the internal pointer already points
beyond the last element in the array, the function returns false.
Be careful when iterating over an array using this function—if
an array contains an empty element or an element with a key value of
0, a value equivalent to false is returned, causing the loop to
end. If an array might contain empty elements or an element with a
key of 0, use the each function instead of a loop with
next.
