Why don't you go a little bit further ?
while ( $row = mysql_fetch_assoc( $result ) ){
} else for ( $i = 0; $i < $cpt; $i++ ) {
} else if ( $dude ) {
} else {
}

Hey, i was also looking for some while {} else {} feature...
but i think it could be difficult to implement such a function in php.
Because the else{} event would start after the while{}-loop ends -> everytime
after the last result!
think about it!

This is a great idea. I am currently needing something like this, but however
got
around it using flags and making the flag true in the while. It would be alot
more
convenient if there was an else!
Please add this feature!!!

I agree. I think a while () else () will make things easier. I was researching
and
found out that it doesnt exist yet.
while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) { }
with al else I would fix it.. I am new in PHP,. I will try to find something to
fix it. but if the while else is release in a new version that would be nice.

Highly agreed, this request would be very practical for improved coding
structure and
follows logical language syntax nicely.
function remove_items (&$arr, $needle) {
while ($key = array_search($needle, $arr)) {
unset( $arr[$key] );
} else return false; // No items present
return true; // Item(s) removed
}
