Need help in ASP for loop

Nishapd · August 31st, 2009, 11:59 AM

I have a follwing for loop in my ASP page,

for i=0 to 10
' some code here
next

Now, if i = 2, I need to check for some conditon and if it is true then only I need to execute the code else I need to skip execution for i = 2 but need to check for i = 3 and so on...

for e.g.
for i = 0 to 10
if ( i = 2 and name = "test") then
' some code
else
continue
end if
next

How can we use the functionality of continue in ASP ?

I appreicate your help.

but it is not that simple

for e.g.

for i = 0 to 10

if i <> 2 then
' some code
else
if ( name = 'test' ) then
' same code as above
else
i = i + 1
end if
end if

next

I am trying to do something like as above but it is not working. Can you please guide me how can I do that ?

Do you want to run the code only if i=2 AND name=test
or do you want to run it if i=2 OR name=test?

I want to run the code for i = 0, 1, 3 to 10 and i = 2.

but for i =2 I need to check some other condition too....if it is true then only i need to run the code or else just skip it and go to i = 3

so it is basically for i = 2 AND name = 'test'

Code:

for i=0 to 10
  if i<>2 then
    'Process code
  else
    if name="test" then
      'Process code
    end if
  end if
next

Thanks so much for your help but I tried the exact same thing but somehow it is not processing code for i = 3 and i = 4.

No you showed this code before:

Code:

for i = 0 to 10
       if i <> 2 then
             ' some code
       else
             if ( name = 'test' ) then
                   ' same code as above
             else
                    i = i + 1
              end if
       end if
next

which is not the same as:

Code:

for i=0 to 10
  if i<>2 then
    'Process code
  else
    if name="test" then
      'Process code
    end if
  end if
next

Notice i don't have the i = i + 1 which means you would be effectively skipping numbers in the loop...
