Re: loop variable

I think the second test is not containing any value because you are already parsing the array with that for cycle. 1) I would use the count and not sizeof 2) You don't neet the $test so fetch the position, it's a natural array index 3) U can use the array's function to set back to the first position of the array the pointer to the first index it will be read. Infact, a the end of the FOR cycle, the pointer still remains at the end of the array. Try some cleaner array functions! :) J "Michael P.
