Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

Maybe you want \"break\" isntead of \"continue\".

Thank you for your reply,Johannes!

I know 'break',of course.
But,'break' means the other.
Can't I continue the loop?

Thanks.

Best Regards.

Of course you can -- and you are. The behaviour you are getting is expected. This is a support issue, not a bug, so try asking in the php-general list (but, hint: think about when your ++ increment is happening).

Dear mgf and Johannes.

Thank you so.
I understood why.
It is just my mistake...

Best wishes.
