Repetition is not working

[Mati002]

Hello, I'm new not only to autoit but programming in general and I would appreciate your help.

I have been having problems with my latest code because the main repetition doesn't work, here is the code:

#include <AutoItConstants.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

For $i = 1 To InputBox("", "How many pages?", 3)
MouseClick($MOUSE_CLICK_RIGHT, 1560, 450)
MouseClick($MOUSE_CLICK_RIGHT, 1690, 460)
    For $i = 1 To 19 ; this works
    WinActivate("Bills")
    Send("{TAB}")
    Send("^{Enter}")
    Next
Send("^{PGDN}")
    For $i = 1 To 20 ; this works too
    MouseClick($MOUSE_CLICK_LEFT, 1590, 250)
    MouseClick($MOUSE_CLICK_LEFT, 1590, 310)
    Sleep(1000)
    Send("^v")
    Send("{TAB}")
    Send("ACH")
    Send("{TAB}")
    Send("ACH")
    Send("{ENTER}")
    Sleep(1000)
    Send("{ENTER}")
    Sleep(1000)
    Send("^w")
Next
Sleep(1000)
Send("{F5}")
Sleep(1000)
Next ; and here it dies regardless of the value of $Number, even if I manually change it to other value it stops here

Basically once it refreshes the page and waits a second it doesn't go back to clicking on the unpaid bills, the script icon disappears from the task bar so I assume it thinks it has finished but it doesn't repeat the whole script.

I'm sorry I see now that it's a variable problem, such a rookie mistake coming from a rookie, I swear I did look through the forums and I was afraid of breaking the code by changing the repetition variables. this is how I ended up fixing it, hopefully it will be helpful to someone as lost as me.

#include <AutoItConstants.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

For $i = 1 To InputBox("", "How many pages?", 3)

    WinActivate("Bills")
    Send("{TAB}")
    Send("^{Enter}")
    Next
Send("^{PGDN}")
    For $i2 = 1 To 20 ; this works too
    MouseClick($MOUSE_CLICK_LEFT, 1590, 250)
    MouseClick($MOUSE_CLICK_LEFT, 1590, 310)
    Sleep(1000)

Next
Sleep(1000)
Send("{F5}")
Sleep(1000)
Next ; Insert Anakin Skywalker's "it's working" gif here

I'll make sure to spend more time researching and looking through the resources next time, it's just that as someone with a finance career programming is difficult and I'm used to solving financial problems rather than programming issues. Still if you have external resources (I'd prefer videos) to better understand variables and syntax they are very welcome.
