Re: [PHP] returning an array from a function?
Hello List,
Your help produced a refined function. The function converts a Google Map
latitude and longitude into an equivalent Microsoft Virtual Earth latitude and
longitude.
Here is an example of how the function works, along with source code:

Thank you to Ted and others who helped.
sincerely,
Rob

.. the above does not return a value in the array. What do I have to
change to receive an array with global scope from this function? I
read several pages of docs on php.net but the light didn't go on...
Sincerely,
Rob.

$mve_array = convert( $latitude, $longitude );
or, in convert(), before the first call to $mve_array:
global $mve_array;
