Function-returning array { OR } declare array at top of functions file?

Hi, I just wanted to know if it is wrong, or non-standard, for me to set-up functions that just return an array... example: //////// function vert_links_array(): function vert_links_array() { return array( '1' => array(S_MANCOM,'start.php?page=products&sub=mancom',S_MANCOM_TI,'mancom'), '2' => array(S_BRACLU,'start.php?page=products&sub=braclu',S_BRACLU_TI,'braclu'), '3' => array(S_BRASHO,'start.php?page=products&sub=brasho',S_BRASHO_TI,'brasho'), '4' => array(S_CALDIS,'start.php?page=products&sub=caldis',S_CALDIS_TI,'caldis'), '5' => array(S_CUSMAN,'start.php?page=products&sub=cusman',S_CUSMAN_TI,'cusman'), '6' => array(S_FRIDIS,'start.php?page=products&sub=fridis',S_FRIDIS_TI,'fridis'), '7' => array(S_GOVMIL,'start.php?page=products&sub=govmil',S_GOVMIL_TI,'govmil'), '8' => array(S_INDBRA,'start.php?page=products&sub=indbra',S_INDBRA_TI,'indbra'), '9' => array(S_INDLIN,'start.php?page=products&sub=indlin',S_INDLIN_TI,'indlin'), '10' => array(S_RAICAR,'start.php?page=products&sub=raicar',S_RAICAR_TI,'raicar'), '11' => array(S_SAWGUI,'start.php?page=products&sub=sawgui',S_SAWGUI_TI,'sawgui'), '12' => array(S_ASSPRO,'start.php?page=products&sub=asspro',S_ASSPRO_TI,'asspro') ); // Add more here. } OR Should I just put the above array at the top of my functions file and access it as a global within other functions? Any suggestions? I am a self-taught php dude, so please don't laugh if this is a silly question. Thanks. :) Cheers, Micky
