Where did you come up with that? See, that's what I mean, some people can just pull code like that out of the air and have it be elegant and work, whereas I sit and puzzle over how to approach a problem for hours before I give up and google for an algorithm. Patricia's points are correct, I assume but that method is still better than any I could come up with.
