ID in image tag fails

Question

Trying to set an id = $x - but it fails!

<img src='images/Rename.png' id='".$x."' title='Create new item' border=0 width='20px' height='20px' class='item_create_button'>

$x is in a for() so it starts with 1

looking at it with Firebug - it shows that the id = 0 (but the lines before it has id=1

Now, trying to - just for the test of it - set it to an input field:

<input type=button id='".$x."' title='Create new item' border=0 width='20px' height='20px' class='item_create_button'>

it shows in Firebug that id=1 !?

Why can't I set the id in an img tag to anything!?

Answer 1

Here is the correct syntax,

for ($x=0; $x<100; $x++) {
   echo "<input type=button id='".$x."' title='Create new item' border=0 width='20px' height='20px' class='item_create_button'>";
}
