array problem

Hello everyone, below is my code;

Code Java:

---

import java.util.Scanner;
public class user1{
 
public static void main(String args[])
	{
	Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
	String array[] = new String [15];//array for name only
	int x;
	do{
	//store name
	System.out.println("Please enter your name below");
	name(array);
 
	displayname(array);
	System.out.println("To exit, press 5; to contiue press any other number");
	x=input.nextInt();
	}while(x!=5);
	{
	System.out.println("end");
	}
	}//end main
 
	public static void name(String a[])
	{
	Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
	int i=0;
	a[i] = new Scanner (System.in).nextLine();
 
	i=i+4;
 
	}//end method
 
 
	public static void displayname(String g[])
	{
	//look here if issues on 2nd user, 3rd etc.
	int i=0;
	System.out.print("|"+ g[i]+ "|"); 
	}
 
}//end class

My problem is that when I add a new string name, the previous string name is replaced. I need to somehow increment my int variable' i' inside my static method named 'displayname', however everytime that method is called, 'i' is set to zero...Please help!! Thankyou :)

Define the variable i outside the scope of the method. Several ways to do this: define it as an instance variable, define it as static outside the method so it can be accessed by the static method....
