Simple PHP Question: Using an IF statement inside a FOR loop
<p>Inside a for loop, I'm trying to set a variable based on the what iteration of the loop it's on: </p>

<pre><code>&lt;?php 
for ($k = 0; $k &lt; 3; $k++){ 
    if ($k = 0) : $var = 'zero';    
    elseif ($k = 1) : $var = 'one'; 
    else : $var = 'two';
    endif;  
?&gt;

This is iteration &lt;?php echo $var; ?&gt;.

&lt;?php }; ?&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>But it continues looping forever until my browser freezes... what's going on? Any help would be greatly appreciated!</p>
