I am re-posting the code.. Somehow the format is getting messed up...

while ( pRev > 0)
{
  for ( pStrt = N; pStrt >=1 ; --i)
  {
      if ( OrigStr[pStrt] == OrigStr[pRev] )
      {
          X[pStrt] = 1 + X[pStrt - 1];
          if ( (X[pStrt] % 2 == 0) &&
              (currMax < X[pStrt]) &&
              (pStrt < pRev)
             // We need to check for the case where the reverse
             //substring is placed before the orig substring as
             //its symmetric..
             )
          {
              currMax = X[pStrt];
            // In case u r looking for any even length palindrome
            // then break out from the entire loop..
          }
      }
      else
          X[pStrt]=0;
  }

  pRev -- ;
}
