problems with recursive function

[Anon]

Hi,

I'm having problems with returning variables in recursive functions.

i've built a function with a condition.
when the condition is false the function will repeat it self...

it seems that when the function does not repeat it self, it will retrun the variable as programmed. but when a condition in the function was false it will repeat it self but with the variable is not returned.

echoing the variable in the function prooves that there's something in the variable.. but returning it won't work..

any ideas why ? is this a php bug?
please any help would be appreciated

thnx in advance

Max,

May be, you can try to make this problem variable global? It could help. But if you call the function with proper parameters, they should be transferred, I think. Frankly speaking, I've never dealed with recursive functions in PHP yet :-)
