For loop in react render method [duplicate]

I want create paging link for my grid.I pass maxPages(number) property to component but i cant use for in render method. What can i do ?

var Pagination = React.createClass({

render: function(){


    return(
    <div class="text-center">
        <ul class="pagination">

            <li><a href="#">«</a></li>
            {for (var i=0;i <10;i++;)
            {
              return( <li><a href="#">i + 1 </a></li>);
            }
            }

            <li><a href="#">»</a></li>
        </ul>
    </div>);

}});

You can run the loop before the rendering (note that there's an error in your for loop)

var lis = [];

for (var i=0; i<10; i++) {
    lis.push(<li><a href="#">{i + 1}</a></li>);
}

var Pagination = React.createClass({
    render: function(){
        return(
            <div class="text-center">
                <ul class="pagination">

                    <li><a href="#">«</a></li>
                    {lis}
                    <li><a href="#">»</a></li>
                </ul>
            </div>
        );
    }
});

FIDDLE

You can only embed expressions into JSX.

<ul className="pagination">{children}</ul>

is converted to something like

React.createElement('ul', {className: 'pagination'}, children);

Do you see now how you could never have a for loop in place of children? Statements cannot be inside a function call expression.

You can create an array beforehand, like adeneo showed in their answer.
