Two conditions in a for loop
<p>Why does this for loop work with each condition on their own, but together the first condition doesn't matter?</p>

<pre><code>for ($j = 0; $j &lt; 5 or $j &lt; $synCount; $j++)
</code></pre>

<p>I only want the loop run five times</p>

<p>or</p>

<p>if synCount is less than this.</p>
