This is the second function that I've given away today. I hope it does what you need.. function max_alpha($array) { if (!is_array($array)) return false; foreach($array as $key => $val) { if(!isset($prev_val)) $max_val = ''; $result = strcmp($val, $max_val); if ($result > 0) // < for min value { $max_val = $val; } } return $max_val; } - Kevin -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
