max() under PHP 4.0 returns an array

Hi everyone, I have some code that gets a value from the database and uses max() to compare it with a defualt value and return the bigger value: . . . return max($row[Max], $default); this used to work fine under PHP 3.0.5 but i recently upgraded to PHP4.0.1pl2 and now the function is returning an array!! I checked and made sure the values in both $row[Max] and $default are both integers. The workaround is trivial using if/else but i'm just wondering if anyone else came across this same problem.
