PHP：如何将foreach-loop拆分为3个部分？

Question

I have a little problem on my website. I have a Blog and every article is in one list. Now I want to split this one list into 3 lists.

My Problem:

<ul class="row-3">
<?php $i = 1; foreach($posts as $post): ?>
    <?php if($i % 3 == 0): ?>
        <?php echo "$article" ?>              
    <?php endif; $i++; ?>
<?php endforeach ?>
</ul>

<ul class="row-2">
<?php $i = 1; foreach($posts as $post): ?>
    <?php if($i % 2 == 0): ?>
        <?php echo "$article" ?>              
    <?php endif; $i++; ?>
<?php endforeach ?>
</ul>

If I make it like this will every third loop go into the third list and every second loop into the second list. But the problem is:

Article 5 and 10 will be in both lists...

So I have to split the whole foreach-loop into 3 parts that a counter count until 3 and then if its at 3 it changes to 0 again so I can put every 1 into the first list every 2 into the second and every 3 into the third list but I have absolutely no idea how I can solve this.

I hope you guys can help me a bit and I'm sorry for my bad english..

Thanks a lot.

I'm not surer that this will work with your ordering, but array_chunk, https://secure.php.net/manual/en/function.array-chunk.php, may do what you want.

This way you don't have to deal with the sharing a common multiple.

If ordering is an issue, there is a comment on the array_chunk page which has some code that does an array_chunk_vertical. One of these two methods should get you what you need.

Something like this untested code below:

// Each group will be in it's own section array. $sections = array_chunk($posts, 2);
