| Are you sure Steve?
yes.
| function level($n,$l=0,$d=false) {
| if ($d) { return $l; }
| else {
| $ff=get_folders();
| for ($i=0;$i<count($ff);$i++) {
| if ($n==$ff[$i][0]) {
| if ($ff[$i][4]!=0) {
|
| Here he increments again before calling level()
true enough, however when he actually expects a return value rather than
recurse level() again, there is no need to call level(), and further, no
need for $d at all. the return should be immediate. notice again, however,
that level() never sets anything for return to return into?
| $l++;
| level($ff[$i][4],$l,$d);
| }
| else {
|
| But here he has found what he wants and it should return on the next
| recursion.
needlessly, true...but into what does he return $l from any iteration?
| $d=true;
| level($ff[$i][0],$l,$d);
| }
| }
| }
| }
| }
|
| I could be wrong, it wouldn't be the first time ;)
me too. i've lost count.
