Thanks Chris.  I didn't know what loop-increment was.  Time to get rid of my
counters.  Thanks to your help I've got loop-last doing what I need.  But
I'm wondering if there's a way to use it without calc.  Here's an example
that works with calc:

[loop search="ml=10000/ra=yes"]
code: [loop-code]<br />
	[loop-last][calc] return '[loop-code]' eq 'sku-20'; [/calc][/loop-last]
[/loop]

How could it be written without calc?
