Any ideas why this is resulting in me having pages of "inserted"? I was under the impression that when $i=5 it shouldn't print any more...

if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { 
 
while($i<=5) {
 
 
$i=1;
$fld = 'pick'.$i;
$fld1 = 'addr'.$i;
$fld2 = 'dest'.$i;
$fld3 = 'tonn'.$i;
$fld4 = 'driv'.$i;
$fld5 = 'invn'.$i;
$fld6 = 'subc'.$i;
$fld7 = 'span'.$i;
 
 
if(isset($_POST[$fld])) {
   mysql_query("INSERT INTO `jobs` (`ts`, `pick`, `addr`, `dest`, `tonn`, `driv`, `invc`, `subc`, `span`, `completed`) VALUES ('ts', '".$_POST["pick".$i]."', '".$_POST["addr".$i]."', '".$_POST["dest".$i]."', '".$_POST["tonn".$i]."', '".$_POST["driv".$i]."', '".$_POST["invn".$i]."', '".$_POST["subc".$i]."', '".$_POST["span".$i]."', 'no')", $connect);
   echo ("<br>Inserted<br>");
  }
 
$i++;
}
}

?>

This loop is a forever loop.

while (i <= 5){
   i = 1; //look mom, no hands
   i++;
}
