How do I cause a loop to jump to the next loop item?

How do I cause a loop to jump to the next loop item? cfbreak exits all the loop which I don't want

<cfloop condition="i LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO #ArrayLen(arrData)#">
       
        <!--- we need to filter out problem rows so the uplaod doesn't crash'--->
        <cfif not REFind("^[0-2][0-9][/][0-1][0-2][/][1-2][0-9]{3}$", arrData[1] ) > <!--- Deal date--->
            jump to next loop item  (ie i++)
        </cfif>

thanks

<cfloop condition="i LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO #ArrayLen(arrData)#">            
        <cfif >  

            <cfset i=i+1> 
        </cfif>

</cfloop>

There does not appear to be any need for a cfbreak at all.

[nikos101]

why is that?

[Dan_Bracuk]

Because the code comments in the OP suggest that you want to process the entire array.

I want to check each row but if there is any error in any column in that row I want to ignore the entire row,

the code

<cfset i=i+1>  does not cause the loop to jump to the next loop item, it mearly incraments the var i.

Read Ian's answer again.

<cfset i=i+1>  does not cause the loop to jump to the next loop item, it mearly incraments the var i.

<cfset i=i+1> does in fact cause the loop to jump to the next item. This is inevitable, because i is your loop's index.

In any case, as others have suggested, you can ignore the i story altogether. Just follow your own instinct and code it directly as you feel it.

I want to check each row but if there is any error in any column in that row I want to ignore the entire row

<cfloop>

<cfset isRowErrorFree = true>

<!--- code to check for error in row; if error found, set isRowErrorFree = false --->

<cfif isRowErrorFree>

     <!--- code to do the required calculation --->

</cfif>

</cfloop>

Cool, thanks guys

Just use your if else logic to determine what goes on in each iteration of the loop.

<cfloop ...>

  <cfif this>

    DO THIS

   <cfelse>

    DO THAT

  </cfif>

</cfloop>
