Yes, but that's a for more than an if. But that's the way I do it, I rarely have a need for while loops. There are rare occasions where they're necessary, but generally I'll go out of my way to avoid them.

heh, I save constantly too, but while loops never crash me.

if you want to use while scripts safely put a "or cap" on it.
something like this
wcount=0
while ("put condition here" or wcount>100) {
wcount>=100 ? trace("its laggeh") : wcount++
//put your scripts here.
}

STILL SAVE BEFORE RUNNING IT!!! just incase you typed something wrong or something goes horribly horribly wrong. it just helps a LOT for testing and you can probably remove it or make the wcount higher when youre done. and even with no while testing still save before testing anything at all. and regularly make backup FLA files incase something gets corrupted (ive lost lots because of file corruption)

or get a mac.

Grr.

i hate when flash cant recognize infinite loops right off the bat...i always make the same stupid mistake when i make a for loop..

for(i=0; 1<20; i++) {

i hate that -_-

WHY NOT! WHy is everyone so afraid of getting a good computer? Are they afraid of the computer not crashing every 2 seconds? Did they spend to much on virus protection to just through it away cause they don't need it? WHY DO PEOPLE HATE MACS!?!???????

but if you plug a right click mouse into it it WOULD WORK! Control-click is the SAME as right-click

This is going waaaaaaaaaay off-topic, but it's a compatibility issue for me; pretty much EVERY program (apart from maybe 2) is compatible with Windows; whereas the number of programs that will work with a MAC is limited. I have to admit, I've never actually tried one, but I've heard plenty of complaints about (lack of) application compatibility, and that's enough to put me off.

As for virus protection and crashing, my PC has crashed twice (not irrepairably) in the three years since I got XP, and I have enough know-how to never get virii on my machine. The kind of PC users who let Windows get to the stage where it dies through infection or bad organisation would probably kill a MAC in about 3 hours.

Even so, there's a $100 program to make all the PC programs run on mac.

Also, you have to enter a password to install ANYTHING, so viruses aren't a problem.

13000 for PC
63 for Mac

that's the number of viruses

IF you are going to make an endless loop! at least make a pretty one

function iAmAN00b(){
trace("OMGWTF1337!!!!!");
iAmAN00b();
}

It's for things like this that I hate AS:

while (69 or YOUR_MOM)
{
trace("WTF!?");
}

That is a functional endless loop, although it should give you hundreds of errors.

Same here, and viruses aren't really a problem because there are enough free programs out there to protect a PC from anything, at all. If you download all the free virus detection and ad-ware stoppers, spyware detectors, etc. then you are covered.

Firefox helps too.

yes but the whole point is that you shouldn't have to bother doing that.withh a mac you don't.As for the one-buttoned mouse i use a mighty mouse by apple which has two and a scroll ball,but any pc mouse will work.All the software i need is on mac: MS office, flash , photoshop, itunes and windows media player and a lot of apps are mac only like garageband.

while triggers continusly untill the condition is reached

So... it's basicly running as fast as your cpu will allow? Or is it occupying every possible point at the same time... :S

Yup.

Ah shit I shouldve checked the date on that last post. Bugger.

how do u make ur ani stop at the end of it instead of it keep repeating

Do you mean
while (a==true){
_X+=10;
}

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think you can use the break command for that...

while(condition){ //starts the while loop
if(condition){ //if something happens...
break // then the while loops stops
}
statement //otherwise do this for the while loop
} //end while

I don't use the break command often but I am pretty sure that is how it's done...

keep in mind that by making this, you will make alot of people crash when they mess up with an endless loop. what youre doing is giving purified uranium to infants, and while the stuff can be powerful, it can blow then straight to hell.

nice AS: thread btw.

wow im bored.
