reversing a increment counter

ok all.... i have a script that is used for pop3 webmail....the way that i have it set up is it logs in then loops through each message.....one small problem.... the older mail had the lowest numbers (ie their displayed first) and the newest had the highest (their displayed last)...how do i reverse something like this? i have the code that pulls out the data from each message in a for loop incrementing $i each time it loops... any ideas? ~kurth Kurth Bemis - Network/Systems Administrator, USAExpress.net/Ozone Computer kurth@usaexpress.net http://www.usaexpress.net/kurth ICQ - 6624050 Call Sign - N1TYW PGP key available - http://www.usaexpress.net/kurth/pgp Fight Weak Encryption!
