code problem help really needed

[erhuu a]

having difficulty with my code , the user is suppose to input a character and then move it , up , down , ;left and right using the keys : i,j,k,l on the keyboard. however so far with my code it just moves to left no matter what key i press.

here is my code so far :

#include<iostream>
#include"110ct.h"
#include<string>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
CursorController crs;
ColourController cl;


int Number;// the number of stairs
int Amount = 1; // this is the amount of x it will add to the line

string A;// this is the variable for the character
char movementi = 'i' ;// this is the variable to move the character
char movementk = 'k';
char movementj = 'j';
char movementl = 'l';

double xval ,yval;
xval= 2;// the set x postion coordinates
yval= 3;//the set x postion coordinates


cout << "Enter in how many 'stairs' you want" << endl;
cin >> Number;
cout << " now enter a special character to move up and down the starirs \n";
cin >> A;

for(int c = 0; c < Number; c++)
{
for(int d = 0; d < Amount; d++)
{
cout << "*";//the charater for the stair
}

cout << endl;
Amount +=1; //Adds 1 'X' after every new line

}
while( movementi =='i')
{
yval=yval-0.5;
crs.setPosition(xval,yval);
cout << A <<"\n";
qin>>movementi;
crs.clearAll();
cout<< " to move the special character press the following keys \n";
cout<< " press i for up \n k for down \n j for left and l for right \n";// intructions for the keys

}
while( movementk == 'k')
{
yval=yval+0.5;
crs.setPosition(xval,yval);
cout << A <<"\n";
qin>>movementk;
crs.clearAll();
cout<< " to move the special character press the following keys \n";
cout<< " press i for up \n k for down \n j for left and l for right \n";// intructions for the keys

}
while( movementj == 'j')
{
xval=xval-0.5;
crs.setPosition(xval,yval);
cout << A <<"\n";
qin>>movementj;
crs.clearAll();
cout<< " to move the special character press the following keys \n";
cout<< " press i for up \n k for down \n j for left and l for right \n";// intructions for the keys

}
while( movementl != 'l')
{
xval=xval+0.5;
crs.setPosition(xval,yval);
cout << A <<"\n";
qin>>movementl;
crs.clearAll();
cout<< " to move the special character press the following keys \n";
cout<< " press i for up \n k for down \n j for left and l for right \n";// intructions for the keys
}


qin.get();

return 0;
}

You're not putting a decision making process in there, so it's just looping through the first while loop and never getting to the second one, because movementi will never not equal i.

so how can i overcome this problem?
