note 42282 added to control-structures.continue

In the same way that one can append a number to the end of a break statement to indicate the "loop" level upon which one wishes to 'break' , one can append a number to the end of a 'continue' statement to acheive the same goal. Here's a quick example: <? for ($i = 0;$i<3;$i++) { echo "Start Of I loop\n"; for ($j=0;;$j++) { if ($j >= 2) continue 2; // This "continue" applies to the "$i" loop echo "I : $i J : $j"."\n"; } echo "End\n"; } ?> The output here is: Start Of I loop I : 0 J : 0 I : 0 J : 1 Start Of I loop I : 1 J : 0 I : 1 J : 1 Start Of I loop I : 2 J : 0 I : 2 J : 1 For more information, see the php manual's entry for the 'break' statement. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/control-structures.continue.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+42282 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+42282&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+42282&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
