# action.skip

Moves to the next or previous item in a sequence someone steps through: the next track, the previous episode, the next photo in a dialog.media

Component: [`<Action>`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/components/action.md) · Renders: `<button>` · Profile: [UI](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/ui.md)

## Example

```tsx
<Action intent="action.skip" onClick={skipItem}>Skip</Action>
```

Code that says `skip`, `track` points here. `prongs check` warns when an element with this intent has a handler or label that points somewhere else.

## Choosing between neighbours

Find the row that describes your element, and use the intent on the right.

| If it is for… | Use |
|---|---|
| Moves to the next or previous item in a sequence someone steps through: the next track, the previous episode, the next photo in a dialog.media | `action.skip` (this page) |
| The next step of a multi-step flow | [`action.next`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/action/next.md) |
| The next track or episode in something that plays (rather than [`action.next`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/action/next.md)) | `action.skip` (this page) |

## Connections

Declared in the registry, both directions. Where an intent is used in your own code is something check and the gallery see; this site has no app code.

## For registry authors

**Starter intents.** These are the intents `prongs add` puts in your registry, shown in this site’s theme. Yours are your own `registry.ts`: rename, restyle and add to them, and see them with `prongs add gallery`.

What this intent is built from and its entry in `components/prongs/registry.ts`. You only need this to change how it looks or to add an intent like it.

How action.skip resolves, and its definition

Each layer adds to the one before it; a later class wins over an earlier one that sets the same thing.
