The following code iterates through the values inside an lua table without consequence - if none of the keys are integers. Otherwise it breaks, giving an "invalid key to 'next'" error after it comes across one.

Local i%=lua_gettop(state)
lua_pushnil state
While lua_next(state,i)
	Print lua_typename(state,lua_type(state,-1))+" : "+lua_tostring(state,-2)
	lua_pop(state,1)
Wend

What am I doing wrong?
