PHP stops executing after the foreach loop

Question

I have a piece of code as below:

ini_set("display_errors", "1");
error_reporting(E_ALL);

$i = 0;
do {
$filename = "links".DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $i++ . "-WriteURLs.txt";
} while (file_exists($filename));

$write_URLs = fopen($filename, "w");

foreach ($list_URLs as $htmlIndividual) {
      GetURLs ($htmlIndividual);
      foreach ($URLs as $URLK) {
      fwrite($write_URLs, $URLK ."\n");
    }
echo "Hello World (Inside Foreach Loop) <br>";    
}    
echo "Hello World (First Foreach Loop) <br>";
fclose($write_URLs);
$trimmed = explode("\n",file_get_contents($filename));
foreach ($trimmed as $URLSa) {
    echo "Hello World (Second Foreach Loop) <br>";
}

The code writes the URLs to 0-WriteURLs.txt, 1-WriteURLs.txt, 2--WriteURLs.txt and ... and echos the below on every execution of the code:

Hello World (Inside Foreach Loop) 
Hello World (Inside Foreach Loop)

But, as you can see, the code stops executing the codes after the first foreach loop and it can not echo the Hello World (First Foreach Loop) and Hello World (Second Foreach Loop) accordingly. Could you please let me know how I can solve this problem? thanks

Note: I added error_reporting = E_ALL to php.ini file and increased memory limit to memory_limit = 256M, but still there is no change.

With proper (better) indentation, you wouldn't have to search for matching curly braces. — GolezTrol

@MrJack, I added error_reporting = E_ALL to php.ini file, but still no change, — Sami

@Apiah I think you need some refactoring, 4 loops for such simple task is too much, and Hello World (First Foreach Loop) is not even inside of a loop — meda

How long does all this take to execute, are you timing out, maybe? (no errors is strange) What does GetURLs do and why is it not $URLS = GetURLS ? — Jack M.

Your code is executing just fine for me printing both Hello World (First Foreach Loop) and Hello World (Second Foreach Loop) as well as creating the txt file(s).

It's not currently printing "Hello World (Inside Foreach Loop)" as $list_URLs is not defined.

Also try explicitly defining the error reporting error_reporting(E_ALL); ini_set('display_errors', 1);

in your php file to see all errors and warnings inline. This way it's not permanent across your system, just for the one file.
