About the function stack

Hey guys, I have a question about the function stack. I was reading through the overflow tutorial here: http://www.cs.ucsb.edu/~jzhou/security/overflow.html I was doing the first example on a *nix machine and got it to work just fine, so I tried this on a windows machine but I can''t seem to get it to work. I have gotten stuck on determining what the actual addresses in the stack are. I made a really simple function that should print out the stack:

void function() 
{
	int *i;
	int *j;

        // get base pointer

	__asm {
		mov i, ebp
	}

        // get stack pointer

	__asm {
		mov j, esp
	}

	printf ("base: 0x%p\n", i);
	printf ("top: 0x%p\n", j);

	while (i <= j)
	{
		printf ("0x%p ", i); printf ("0x%p\n", *i);
		++i;
	}
}

this is the output i got from it: base: 0x0012FF78 top: 0x0012FF68 0x0012FF68 0x0050005C 0x0012FF6C 0x006F0072 0x0012FF70 0x0012FF68 0x0012FF74 0x0012FF78 0x0012FF78 0x0012FFC0 it shows the address and its contents. I don''t understand what is what though, there should be the bottom of the stack (0x0012ff68), the top (0x0012ff78) and only a return address in between them, right? Thanks for all the help! -brad
