select highest value in loop

[MDanz]

 
$rvote = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `Reply` WHERE keywords='$search'");
$rfound = mysql_num_rows($rvote);

while($maxrow = mysql_fetch_assoc($rvote)) {
$pos = $maxrow['Positive'];
$neg = $maxrow['Negative'];

$totalvotes=$pos+$neg;



$count1 = $pos / $totalvotes;
$count2 = $count1 * 100;
$totalcount = number_format($count2, 0);
}

 

i want to echo the highest $totalcount of the loop.  How do i do that?

$max_totalcount = 0;

$totalvotes=$pos+$neg;



$count1 = $pos / $totalvotes;
$count2 = $count1 * 100;
$totalcount = number_format($count2, 0);
if ($totalcount > $max_totalcount) $max_totalcount = $totalcount;
}
echo $max_totalcount;
