Really quick question.  Will "return" break a loop inside a function?

Example..
myfunc()
{
while($val=0)
{
if ($i=128)
{
return true;  //<-break or no?
}
}
}

I know I could easily figure this out my own but I do not have the means to
test it right now.  :)

Much thanks!
Kevin

I tested this on PHP 4.2.3 and in my case return does break a while loop.

Really quick question.  Will "return" break a loop inside a function?

Example..
myfunc()
{
while($val=0)
{
if ($i=128)
{
return true;  //<-break or no?
}
}
}

I know I could easily figure this out my own but I do not have the means to
test it right now.  :)

Much thanks!
