I am looking to break an outer for/foreach loop in PHP.

This can be done in ActionScript like so:

top : for each(var i:MovieClip in movieClipArray)
{
    for each(var j:String in nameArray)
    {
        if(i.name == j) break top;
    }
}

What's the PHP equivalent?

php for-loop nested-loops break

Use goto?

for ($i = 0, $j = 50; $i < 100; $i++) 
{
  while ($j--) 
  {
    if ($j == 17) 
      goto end; 
  }  
}
echo "i = $i";
end:
echo 'j hit 17';
