Function -- return more than 1 value

[dloeppky]

Hi all,

How do you return more than one value from a function?

Thanks,

You return an array, or you pass the argument by reference, or change an external variable declared global inside the function.

Pass by reference:

function myfunc(&$reference_arg) {
//etc
}

well to the best of my knowledge functions can have only a single return value.
however you can code in the function in such a way that the return "value" can have more than one value in it eg. u could return a resultset in a function.
it depends on what you need to return.
perhaps if u let us know more about what it is that you need we can help
