JavaScript Break and Continue Statements


The break Statement

The break statement will break the loop and continue executing the code that follows after the loop (if any).

Example

<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
var i=0;
for (i=0;i<=10;i++)
  {
  if (i==3)
    {
    break;
    }
  document.write("The number is " + i);
  document.write("<br />");
  }
</script>
</body>
</html>
