VBScript: Functions and Loops - Do Until
(Page 6 of 6 )
If you wanted to execute some code until a certain condition became true, you could use the Until Keyword, like so:
<html>
<body>
<script type="text/vbscript">
i=1
do Until i=10
document.write("Beer!" & "<br />")
i=i+1
Loop
</script>
</body>
</html>
Again the result:
Beer!
Beer!
Beer!
Beer!
Beer!
Beer!
Beer!
Beer!
Beer!
And we can, of course, force this code to execute AT LEAST once as well:
<html>
<body>
<script type="text/vbscript">
i=10
do
document.write("Beer!" & "<br />")
i=i+1
Loop until i=10
</script>
</body>
</html>
Since the value begins at 10, here is the result:
Beer!
While that isn't everything there is to know about loops and functions, it is a good start, and I am currently all out of time. My next VBScript tutorial will discuss some of the different types of functions in VBScript, like array and date functions, and go more in-depth on how to use them. So check back often.
Till then...
