[BlackRaven]

Could some one help in creating a combination function, basically i need a function that spits out ever combination of a list i have got. So say the list i got has three items i need something will Output ever combination in three items:

Item 1 Vs Item 2
Item 1 Vs Item 3
Item 2 Vs Item 1
Item 2 Vs Item 3
Item 3 Vs Item 1
Item 3 Vs Item 2

wouldn't 1vs2 and 2vs1 be the same thing?

be that as it may you can make changes to this if you need to

<? 
$mystuff = array('item1','item2','item3'); 
$mylimit = count($mystuff); 
$counter = 0; 
while ($counter < $mylimit) { 
 $intcount = 0; 
 while ($intcount < $mylimit) { 
 if ($intcount!= $counter) echo '<br>',$mystuff[$counter],' VS ',$mystuff[$intcount]; 
 $intcount++; 
 } 
 $counter++; 
} 
?>
