It's so the "not found" condition can be checked and handled.. You'd still
need a second if to handle that..

eg
        $found = 0;
        while ($mydata = mysql_fetch_object($news))
        {
                if ($mydata->StudentId == $StudentId)
                        {do this; $found = 1;  break;}
        }
 
        if (!$found){do that}
