 u...
 try
 echo pre;
 for( $i=0 ; $i10; $i++){
   echo something  . (($a = $a^1) ? red\n : green\n);
 }

The ^ operator is one that has an assigning version, so the above can be 
slightly shortened to:

   echo something  . (($a ^= 1) ? red\n : green\n);

Cheers!

Mike

Re: The ? char in this  line above..
where in the php docs can I read about what that is doing?
I have not come across this construct before today, from you guys.

Find Ternary on that page.

It's a shortened conditional:

cond ? true : false

Pretty much the best operator ever invented IMHO. And Since PHP 5.3, it is
possible to leave out the middle part of the ternary operator. Expression
expr1 ?: expr3 returns expr1 if expr1  evaluates to TRUE, and expr3
otherwise. Awesome!

Also, Adam Randall set up us the bomb. ;-)

No...not zerowing...no...

But yes, the ternary operator is the bomb, which you can get carried
away with. Daevid knows what I mean :)
