[nycphp-talk] Conditional break?

Hi!
Try to make this short. I have an array with path/file names. I want to
move each file unless it already exists at its destination. What I want
to do is end the current go through the while loop, increase a counter
that I use for the while condition, and then start at the top of the
while loop again. I tried using break as such
while ($counter < $max) {
$error = move_file();
if (!$error) {
echo "Failed!"
$counter++;
break;
} else {
do_some_stuff();
}
$counter++;
}
The problem is that the whole thing stops as soon as it hits break, but
I just want it to stop what it is doing now, increase $counter, and go
back to the top and loop again. Obviously, break isn't the right thing
to use. But what is?
Hope this is a more intelligent question than the others I asked in the
past days. Sorry for that.
David
