[PHP] return value from recursive function

[Jaskirat]

Hi,
How to get return value from a recursive function .. here is the test code 
which I was trying

<?
function abc_recurse()
{
        static $i = 1;
        echo $i;
        $i++;
        if ($i == 4) return ("xyz");
        abc_recurse();

}

$returnvalue = abc_recurse();
echo $returnvalue;

?>
Its printing "123" where as I was expecting "123xyz"
what is happening to $returnvalue

TIA
Jaski
