I have been trying to loop nested foreach loops but the problem is first foreach loop records repeating as the count of second foreach loop first array is coming from mysql data and second array I have wrote below, In my case i want to loop the color presets in second array with first foreach loop results. I'm not much good in arrays please help me to solve this issue. here is the second array and code :

$colors = array ( 
        0 => array ("id"=> 0, "dark" => "#16a085", "light" => "#1ABC9C"),
        1 => array ("id"=> 1, "dark" => "#2980B9", "light" => "#3498DB "),
 );
$unique = array_unique($colors, SORT_REGULAR);
          foreach ($skill as $skilldata) {
                 foreach ($unique as $key => $val) {

  <div class="skillbar clearfix " data-percent="<?php echo $skilldata['js_skill_perc'].'%'; ?>">
    <div class="skillbar-title" style="background: <?php echo $val['dark']?>;">
    <span><?php echo $skilldata['js_skill_title']; ?></span></div>
    <div class="skillbar-bar" style="background-color: <?php echo $val['light']?>; width: <?php echo $skilldata['js_skill_perc'].'%'; ?>;"></div>
    <div class="skill-bar-percent"><?php echo $skilldata['js_skill_perc'].'%'; ?></div>
 </div>

<?php }} ?>

Output should be like : HTML5 (green) PHP(blue) and SEO (green) but this is how output looks like:

What is the content of $skill? Your question is not very clear... What is the output you wanted? – Alan Machado Oct 2 '15 at 11:00

This question is not too clear to me also. Can you show me the expected output? Do you want HTML5 (green) PHP(blue) and SEO (green)? – lolka_bolka Oct 2 '15 at 11:10

If You need to just switch the colors from line to line, You can use CSS for this (see :nth-child(even) and :nth-child(odd)) or do it in PHP like this:

$colors = array(
    ...
);
$colors_count = count($colors);
$colors_index = 0;
foreach ($skill as $skilldata) {

    $color = $colors[$colors_index % $colors_count];
    $colors_index++;

    echo ... whatever using $color ...
}
