Note Submitter: tom@soosed.com ---- Watch out while using continue and a do loop. When there is a continue inside a do while structure, it does not automatically return to the top of the loop. It tests the exit condition before it does this. $x = 0; do { $x++; if ($x == 100) continue; echo $x; } while ($x < 100) In this case, the loop would not do a 101th iteration. The exit condition is still tested even with a continue. This may seem obvious and it is a rare occurence, but in larger coding structures, with many variables, it may be hard to notice.
