Try using a regular expression to go through each of the array elements, sending to one array if the first letter is [a-mA-M], to another if the first letter is [n-zN-Z]. If you're not searching by first letter in the array elements, and they are comma-delimited name sets, do it that way.

Psuedo-code: loop through array array_shift() if element is A-M add to the A-M array, else add to N-Z array -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.com.hk Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * /* I wish I was on a Cincinnati street corner holding a clean dog! */ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
