'repeat with' tag in html

[poonampal]

Can you plz tell me the significance of 'repeat with' tag ? For reference please see below given code:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TABLE(class="format");
numberOfFields = 0;
repeat with j from 1 to SELECT_FIELDS-NAME.dim;
numberOfFields = numberOfFields + 1;
fieldname = "GS_SEARCH_FIELD-";
fieldlabelPre2 = "GV_TEXT_";

fieldlabelTab[numberOfFields] = fieldlabelPre2 & SELECT_FIELDS-NAME[j];

fieldnameTab[numberOfFields] = fieldname & SELECT_FIELDS-NAME[j]`
`if(j == 4 || GV_ADDITIONAL_CRITERIA.value == "X");
if(numberOfFields == 4 || j == SELECT_FIELDS-NAME.dim);
TR();
repeat with k from 1 to numberOfFields;
TD(class="label",nowrap="X");
fieldlabel = fieldlabelTab[k];
fieldname = fieldnameTab[k];
if(fieldname == "GS_SEARCH_FIELD-CATEGORY");
fieldname = "GS_SEARCH_FIELD-CATEGORY_GUID" ;
end; `
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks in advance.

This isnt html.

Post in the relevant forum.

If you tell me what language that is, I'll move it to the appropriate forum.

Hi,
Sorry if i undermine you guys experts. It looks like apple script, and there don't look like theres an apple script forum.

And if thats the case the line can be translated as so...

repeat with k from 1 to numberOfFields

this line is begining of a loop, which basically loops through incrementing k each time until k reaches the numberOfFields variable.

the loop starts at repeat, and finishes at end.
