I like Eric's idea of showing the values and added a form to it so you can
select the number of items to show before running the script.
<?php
if(!$_POST["Submit"]) {
echo "<form method=post action=".$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"].">"
Maximum Number to Show: <input type=text name=i size=5 value=10000>
<input type=submit name=Submit value=Show>
</form>";
}
else {
for($i = 1, $j = 1; $i <= $_POST["i"]; $i++, $j++){
if($j == 5){
$j = 1;
print "\n<br>";
}
print $i." is to ".$j."<br>\n";
} // end for
?>
