Why will my program not go into my while loop?

Question

I'm working on a program that will take a name and number of a periodic element, store it in a tree and then print it out in different orders.

When I try and run my main class it asks for the name, but then it doesn't go into the while loop.

Here is my main class.

public class BinarySearchTree 
{

    public static void main(String[] args) 
    {
        Scanner conIn = new Scanner(System.in);

        String name;
        int atomicNum;

        BSTInterface<PeriodicElement> elements = new BSTree<PeriodicElement>();
        PeriodicElement element;
        int numElements;

        String skip;

        System.out.print("Element name (press Enter to end): ");
        name = conIn.nextLine();
        while (!name.equals(""));
        {
            System.out.print("Atomic Number: ");
            atomicNum = conIn.nextInt();
            skip = conIn.nextLine();

            element = new PeriodicElement(name, atomicNum);
            elements.add(element);

            System.out.print("Element name (press ENTER TO END): ");
            name = conIn.nextLine();
        }
        System.out.println();
        System.out.println("Periodic Elements");

        numElements = elements.reset(BSTree.INORDER);
        for (int count = 1; count <= numElements; count++)
        {
            System.out.println(elements.getNext(BSTree.INORDER));
        }

    }

}

Here is my Binary Search Tree

        else

        }
    }

Answer 1

Remove the semi-colon that is terminating the while statement

while (!name.equals(""));
                        ^

Answer 2

在while语句之后删除半冒号，因为半冒号使它在此结束，而{如果某事是正确的（！）则是一个开始（！），并且显然应该以}结束。
