I have always had trouble with trying to write these from scratch. The
code below is essentially what I have been working on, but it never
stops looping. What am I missing here?
<?php
$teams=array(
'Reds',
'Browns',
'Bengals',
'Cavaliers',
'Blue Jackets',
'Indians'
);
$unique=false;
$newTeam=$_POST['newTeam'];
function checkDuplicate($value){
global $teams;
$count=0;
//do query here, return an array
for($i=0; $i<count($teams); $i++){
if($value==$teams[$i]){
$count++;
}
}
if($count == 0){
//no matches
return true;
}
else {
//there are matches
return false;
}
}
while(!$unique){
$check=checkDuplicate($newTeam);
if($check){ $unique=true; } else { $unique=false; }
}
?>
