For the purposes of outputing the alphabet, for ($i="A"; $i <= "Z"; $i++) echo "$i<br>"; will actually output A-Z, then begin again with AA, AB, etc. until it finishes with YZ. Similarly, for ($i="A"; $i <= "ZZ"; $i++) echo "$i<br>"; will output A-Z, AA, AB... ZZ, then begin again with AAA, AAB, AAC... up to ZYZ. Thus an alternative to timrosseel's example for outputting the alphabet is: for ($i="A"; $i != "AA"; $i++) echo "$i<br>"; ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/control-structures.for.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+39640 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+39640&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+39640&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
