I agree the code was a bit strange, but I found it weird that it worked with any letter but Z.
The suggested code worked. Thanks!

I'm not even sure that is supposed to work like that. Guys?
Why don't you use this instead?
for ($i = ord('A'); $i <= ord('Z'); $i++) {
echo chr($i)."<br>";
}

Trying to make a script that showed the letters from A to Z using the following code:
for ($i = 'A'; $i <= 'Z'; $i++) {
echo "$i<br>";
}
I saw that the script outputted the first letters (A-Z) but then it started to display AA, AB, AC
[...] YZ.
Replacing the 'Z' above to 'Y' (or any other letter between B and Y) makes the
script show correctly the letters from A to that letter.
Replacing letters to lowercase and/or single quotation marks to double causes the same error.
This happened both in PHP 4.0.4pl1 under Windows and in PHP 4.0.1pl1 under Linux.
