***************
*Example*
The following example demonstrates a loop that will continue to run as long as the variable i is less than, or equal to 5. i will increase by 1 each time the loop runs:
<html>
<body> <?php
$i=1;
while($i<=5)
{
echo "The number is " . $i . "<br />";
$i++;
}
?> </body>
</html>
*The do...while Statement*
The do...while statement will execute a block of code *at least once* - it then will repeat the loop *as long as* a condition is true.
*Syntax*
do
{
code to be executed;
}
while (condition); *Example*
The following example will increment the value of i at least once, and it will continue incrementing the variable i as long as it has a value of less than 5:
<html>
<body> <?php
$i=0;
do
{
$i++;
echo "The number is " . $i . "<br />";
}
while ($i<5);
?> </body>
</html>
