I don't know if the post Anonymous made on Oct 13 2011 explains this or not, because I had a problem with that approach. The following (same as his/her 2nd code snippet) would not work at all, and my script would stop unexpectedly and display a blank page! <?php for ($i = 'A'; $i =< 'Z'; $i++) { echo '<a href="dictionary.html?alph=' . $i . '">' . $i . '</a>'; } ?> I'm not sure why this should be the case. Perhaps unlike Anonymous' experience, instead of going until 'YZ', my script just kept adding more character "digits" in a never-ending loop? In contrast, using the manual's example works like a charm. That is what I would recommend for iterating through the alphabet. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 71.83.59.131 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.increment.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/108586 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108586/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108586/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108586/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108586/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108586/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108586/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108586 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/108586 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
