Sometimes you don’t want to entirely exit from a loop, but instead wish to skip the remaining statements just for this iteration of the loop. In such cases, you can use the continue command. Following Example shows this in use.
<script> haystack = new Array() haystack[4] = "Needle" haystack[11] = "Needle" haystack[17] = "Needle" for (j = 0 ; j < 20 ; ++j) { if (haystack[j] == "Needle") { document.write("<br />- Found at location " + j + "<br />") continue } document.write(j + ", ") } </script>
