Yeah. See Normans post about static variables. Normally this is what you use
but I didn't know if php had it(though that is what global was).
If you get a program like zend studio then you can debug your code and step
through it one line at a time and see whats going on. This is how I found
out that your counter was local and not actually counting the recursive
steps. It makes it much easier to write code if you can debug it.
