Probably not.  Read on.

You're doing it perfectly.

I see nothing wrong with your code.  It looks to me like it's doing 
exactly what you described wanted to accomplish.

Now, when you say "doesn't do what I expected"... well, we can't even 
begin to fathom what's wrong and how to help you unless you tell us what 
it IS doing.

Quick guide to writing intelligent questions:

1) show us the code, preferably with a brief explanation of what it's 
about
2) say what you expected it to do
3) say what it actually did

Remember - you're helping us to help YOU.
