Loops within ftp shell session

Hi guys,
i need to script the sending of multiple files through one ftp session. I have done this so far:
----------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
USER=myuser
PASSWD=mypass
filenum=$1
x=0

ftp -n 159.167.95.199 <<SCRIPT
user $USER $PASSWD
binary
while [ $x -lt $filenum ]
do
cd pacsftp01
put test.txt
delete test.txt
x=`expr $x + 1`
done
quit
echo $x files transferred
SCRIPT
--------------------------------------------------------------------
questions:
How can i execute a while loop within the ftp sessions?
What does "<<SCRIPT" do?

Thnks,
Zaff
