i'm having problems with getting a while loop to work.
this script:

#!/bin/bash


while [ 1 ] 
do 
done

when run, gives these error messages:

/home/fedora/0_scripts/done.ba: line 6: syntax error near unexpected token
`done'
/home/fedora/0_scripts/done.ba: line 6: `done'

at the command line,

while [ 1 ] ; do ; done

gives: bash: syntax error near unexpected token `;'

and,

while [ 1 ]  do ; done

gives: bash: syntax error near unexpected token `done'

can anyone give me a pointer?

thanx
