Here's a good way to get the first and last elements from an array 
without disturbing the array. And unlike current() it ensures that you 
actually get the first value rather than assuming it will be the first.

Enjoy.

// end() gets the last array element
// NB. it moves the pointer, you should always
// follow this with a reset()
$last_rec=end($FXresult['data']);
// reset() resets pointer to the first element and returns it
$first_rec=reset($FXresult['data']);
