After beating my head against the wall wondering why this wasn't working with letters, I noticed the "only available in 4.1.0" disclaimer To mimic this functionality, you can make a range of letters using ASCII integer values and then convert them back to letters with chr(). For example: <?php $capitalLetters = range(65,90); //ascii integers for A-Z foreach($capitalLetters as $l) { $letter = chr($l); //convert from ASCII value echo $letter; } ?> this will print out the VERY useful string: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ see http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.chr.php for more information -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.range.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+17395 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+17395 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+17395
