Now I'm a little confused. The apoc talked about writing your own while loop. A while loop looks like: while($something) { do_this } and a custom while loop would have to be mywhile($something) { do_this } and it doesn't seem much of a stretch for Class.method($something) { do_this } or is that what you ment by "ignoring parser issues"? -- Michael G.
