array in my php code? This is what i got, i can get the message to repeat but cannot get the state name to come up?

<?php
$states[1]="Alabama";
$states[2]="Alaska";
$states[3]="Arizona";
$states[4]="Arkansas";
$states[5]="California";
$states[6]="Colorado";
$states[7]="Connecticut";
$states[8]="Delaware";
$states[9]="Florida";
$states[10]="Georgia";
$states[11]="Hawaii";
$states[12]="Idaho";

function statelist($states, $i)
{
for($i=1; $i<=12; $i++)
{
echo "The number " . $i . " state alphabetically is: " . $states . "<br />";
}
}
statelist($states, $i)


?>

The result:

The number 1 state alphabetically is: Array
The number 2 state alphabetically is: Array
The number 3 state alphabetically is: Array
The number 4 state alphabetically is: Array
The number 5 state alphabetically is: Array
The number 6 state alphabetically is: Array
The number 7 state alphabetically is: Array
The number 8 state alphabetically is: Array
The number 9 state alphabetically is: Array
The number 10 state alphabetically is: Array
The number 11 state alphabetically is: Array
The number 12 state alphabetically is: Array
 
Your line:

echo "The number " . $i . " state alphabetically is: " . $states . "

should read

echo "The number " . $i . " state alphabetically is: " . $states[$i] . "
