Hey *,

In C I can cast a char 'j' to an int and get it's ascii value.  Is there a 
funciton in PHP
to do this with a string containing a single char (i.e. j)?  I could write 
a big
switch for all the chars of the alphabet, however I was hoping for a better 
approach?

The functions you want are ORD() and CHR().  Search for them in the manual.
