Not shown as an Update in your OP:

I am getting syntax error at near ");" at while (0). How do you fix it?

To be honest, I find your reply quite unbelievable. Four monks responded to your post yesterday: davido (in Re: Perl Loops) answered the very question you're now asking; vinoth.ree (in Re: Perl Loops) showed a code example of how to do it; farang (in Re: Perl Loops) and rjt (in Re: Perl Loops) pointed you to documentation for this loop construct.

Go back and read the advice, code and documentation provided. Then make some effort yourself!

Also read "How do I change/delete my post?".

Update: Added the names of the four monks and links to their specific posts.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
