Re: [PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #8428 Updated: continue doesn't pass thru a switch statement From: Stanislav Malyshev (stas <email protected>)

I think C behaviour is most confusing (which is no wonder given how many
confusing behaviours C has). Why "break" works on switch and its brother
"continue" works on enclosing loop? Oh, just because C makers were short
on words and constantly used same keywords to represent different
things? Not good enough.
