Proper use of continue;

[Lionel]

I must. But what is a case construct?

ok. Here is the story. I got a license of this great script (free download)

the script is a dream. All you do is drop in the files and it reads folders, files etc... and sorts them.
Unfortunately, that php simply cannot be touched, not even one comma. They provided with an external prefs file to accomplish whatever you want. And so far so good. It uses many type of authentication including a built in that uses a flat file.

The author told me that if I use the synthax posted above, I will be able to integrate it with vbulletin.

Vbportal did it for vbulletin.

So this is why I must use contimue;, or otherwise it either enters in a loop or displays a blank page once you log in. Apparently, the continue satement breaks that loop by telling it to stop and go nowhere, just display the thing.
