Hi Atrix,

Use the <@FOR> Metatag and when your condition is met - use the <@BREAK>
Metatag to stop the For loop. Just set the For Loop much higher than you
expect your iterations to take, something like:

<@FOR STOP=1000000>

... do some code here....

 <@IFEQUAL <@VAR local$should_I_stop> TRUE>
<@BREAK>
</@IF>
</@FOR>

Not the most elegant method, but it works.

Hope this helps. Cheers.........

Subject: Witango-Talk: metatag while loop


is there any kind of while loop metatag?

what i want to do is loop until a condition is met so i cant use for or
anything since i dont know how many iterations it will take.  I know you can
do this with a tango action, but id rather use a metatag since i heard
metatags execute faster and it would also be cleaner to read as a metatag.

what id really like also is a do..while loop but all i can see in the
actions is a while loop.

anyone have any idea?

Thanks,
Atrix
