 When is followed by a clause with

an activity that (1) is a short
interruption, or (2) occurs at nearly
the same time or shortly after the
first activity. A non-progressive
verb form is more commonly (but
not always) used for activities of
short duration. It can be followed
by a sentence in a simple tense, the
verb BE, or in a continuous tense.
 While is followed by a clause
with a same-time
(simultaneous) activity and
includes a verb expressing
duration. The while-clause
often expresses a background
activity to the focus-activity in
the main clause. While is
generally used with the verb BE
and continuous tenses only.
