How do you make a playlist loop continuously?

How do you make a playlist loop continuously in my iPod Touch? I can shuffle a playlist, but there is no icon to loop it. Shuffle will go through the playlist once, then stop. I could swear there used to be looping capability, either loop a single song or loop the whole playlist, but I have lost that ability. Resetting the iPod by holding down the power and select buttons doesn't fix it. Thanks.

From the users guide:

Additional Audio Controls

To display additional controls, tap the album artwork on the Now Playing screen.

The repeat, Genius, and shuffle controls appear along with the scrubber bar. You can

see elapsed time, remaining time, and the song number. The song’s lyrics also appear,

if you’ve added them to the song in iTunes.

Use the scrubber bar to skip to any point along the timeline. You can adjust the scrub

rate from high-speed to fine by sliding your finger down as you drag the playhead

along the scrubber bar.
