PHP: continue; in if() statement

Posted: Mon Feb 16, 2004 9:29 pm (20 years, 2 months ago)

I want to do this, but PHP doesn't do continue for if statements. Any idea how I canget it to leave the loops?

Code:

//Handle submitted data
if($save=="yes"){

//Is current password correct
if(md5($currentpass)!=$userdata[password]){
debug(md5($currentpass)." != ".$userdata[password]);
$error="Your current password is not correct";
continue 2; //This should leave two loops
}

//Do two new passwords match
if($fpass!=$fpass2){
$error="You entered two different new passwords";
continue 2;
}

}

Thanks

continue should be used in a loop

like this will print even numbers

Code:

for($i=0; $i<10; $i++)
{
if ($i%2) continue;
echo $i;
}

for things like

Code:

if($fpass!=$fpass2){
$error="You entered two different new passwords";
continue 2;
}

I would go with die($error) or echo $error then exit;

hope this helps.
