note 35250 added to function.return

To use return recursively from within a function, use this syntax: return (functionName(arguments)); example: function showArray($array) { if (is_array($array) && count($array)>0) { $temp=array_splice($array,0,1); echo $temp[0].'\r\n'; return (showArray($array)); } } $fooba=array('apple','pear','banana','mango','milkshake','miner'); showArray($fooba); if above code-block was a function within a class the syntax would be return ($this->showArray($foobar)); ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.return.php Edit Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+35250 Delete Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+35250&report=yes Reject Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+35250&report=yes
