Name

continue — NN 2 IE J1 ECMA 1

Synopsis

Stops execution of the current iteration through the loop and returns to the top of the loop for the next pass (executing the update expression if one is specified in a for loop). If you are using nested loop constructions, assign labels to each nested layer, and use the desired label as a parameter with the continue statement. See the label statement (available only starting with Navigator 4 and Internet Explorer 4).

Syntax

continue [label]

Example

outerLoop:
for (var i = 0; i <= maxValue1; i++) {
    for (var j = 0; j <= maxValue2; j++) {
        if (j*i == magic2) {
            continue outerLoop
        }
    }
}
