Thanks, That seems to have worked. Now, can you or someone tell me why I
can't seem to get it to work when I separate the function implementation
from the calling statemtent? For instance:
Say I have the following function in file called "My_Function_Includes.php":
<?php
function foo(&$a)
{
for ($i=0; $i < 10; $i++)
{
$a[$i] = $i;
}
}
?>
In my index.php I have:
<?php
Include_once('My_Function_Includes.php');
$a = array();
foo($a);
echo "<PRE>";
print_r($a);
echo "</PRE>";
?>
This example doesn't seem to work however, when I paste the function
implementation into the index.php and run it, it works.
Thanks for any help in advance,
Jim
