Hi, Hugh--
I am very grateful for your help and very impressed with this, but I am not
sure that I am able to confirm that it works and I am not competent to fix
it if it does not. Perhaps you can tell where I am going wrong.
I stored your script as a separate php document, RomanDigit.php. Here is
what I tested it with:
<?php
include �RomanDigit.php�;
$a=8;
$b=19;
$c=155;
$d=980;
$ar= IntToRoman($a);
$br= IntToRoman($b);
$cr= IntToRoman($c);
$dr= IntToRoman($d);
echo �
a = $a and ar = $ar <br>
b = $b and br = $br <br>
c = $c and cr = $cr <br>
d = $d and dr = $dr <br>
�;
?>
And here are the results:
a = 8 and ar = VIII
b = 19 and br = IX
c = 155 and cr = V
d = 980 and dr = LXXX
