How to dynamically change the name of an element?

• 0
  Hello!
  
  The site template generates several blocks using the code:
  echo '& lt; ul id = "menu" & gt;';
  
  as a result, several blocks with the same ID are formed on the page.
  
  Question:
  
  How to dynamically substitute a prefix for this ID so that each subsequent block on the page is formed with the ID:
  
  menu_1
  menu_2
  menu_3
  
  etc., as this code is called?
  
  Thank you in advance!

  And if not in a loop, then like this:
  
  

  $menuId = 0; // Где-то в области видимости объявляем переменную.
  
  
  
  // Потом просто
  
  echo '<ul id="menu_'.++$menuId.'">';

  
  
  
  
  In general, it is better to write HTML and PHP separately. I mean, don't write all HTML in templates in PHP strings.

  If blocks are formed in a loop, then you can add the iteration number to the ID by simple concatenation
