Hi
hi Niel,
I believe Jacob wanted to know how he could calculate the tax for _all_
states passed in as an array in one go. Yours simply gives it for 1
State ("locale"). Other than thatm $taxRate($state) translates to
Array($state) which gives an E_FATAL_ERROR obviously. I assume you meant
to say $taxRate[$State].
After re-reading Jacob's post I have to agree I misunderstand. Here's a
better answer to his request.
// Create array of locales we want tax for
$locales = array("CA", "OR");
$payment = 1500;
ShowSalesTax($payment, $locales);
function ShowSalesTax($Amount , $States)
{
//aray of states and their rates
$StatesRates = array("CA" => 5 , "WA" => 7, "OR" => 8);
foreach($States as $state):
print "Tax on $Amount in $state is " . $payment / 100 * $StatesRates[$state] . "\n";
endforeach;
}
Obviously, it's only an example and needs refining.

I must say, you're the first (and only) person I've ever seen using
foreach(): endforeach in PHP. As far as I know, most people use
curly-bracers (in this case), I'm sure most people wouldn't even know
this was possible (I had to look it up in the manual, and it's only in a
single note that this is mentioned)
