do while help please

[Fubarable]

I've tried this and i'm back to how i was before. It would add each entered value and straight after show it. So I input 2, it shows me 2, i input another 2, it shows me 4, i input 4, it shows me 8, i input 12, it shows me 20. It will keep doing that showing a dialog box requesting input with OK and Cancel then when i hit OK the show dialog box with the total amount and an OK button.


Here is the code, much simpler but i'm still unsure how to make it only show the total when Cancel is hit:

import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class testing
{
	public static void main (String[] args)
	{

	double total = 0.0;
	String valueInput = "";
	
	
	
	while (valueInput != null)
	{
	
		valueInput = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter a value:");
		if (valueInput != null)	
		{
			double numInput = Double.parseDouble(valueInput);
			total = total + numInput;
		}
	
	JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "£" + total);
}
}
}

Please look again at my pseudo-code and it shows you. Also, you must line up your braces else you won't know where you're putting the code to display the total.

Thanks so much for your help and patience. I was just hurrying that last one that's why i missed it :S

I'm starting to wonder if that was the problem to begin with....
