Sam said: "Here is a function that sets the current pointer of an array to a given key." If your array pointer doesn't start at the beginning, this won't work for moving the pointer to a lower one. So, use a reset() first: <?php //set the pointer of an array to the given key function array_set_current(&$array, $key){ reset($array); while(current($array)){ if(key($array) == $key){ break; } next($array); } } ?> HTH, Matt ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.current.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+38657 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+38657&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+38657&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
