    Reverse For Loop Syntax

    Today, I am braindead... I can't seem to find this in Google, and I
    don't remember where I used this code before (so I can't steal it from
    myself). Anyway, all I want to do is:

    for i = 0 to 20 step -1
    response.write "<br>" & i
    next

    For some reason, that doesn't work. It shows nothing. I know I am
    missing something very simple, but, as I said, today, I am braindead.

      Re: Reverse For Loop Syntax

      Uh, did you mean for i = 20 to 0 step -1?

      If you're going -1 each step, and you start at 0, you're not going to get
      too far.
