Heapify

Hey everyone. I am attemtping to build a heap. The problem with
this code is that if the heap is not the max size, the last element
is not percolated up. Any ideas how to fix this code to do that?

Code:

---

void BinaryHeap::heapify( int i ) {
    int l, r, smallest;

    l = left( i ); // zero if no child
    r = right( i ); // zero if no child

    if( l <= size && array[l - 1] < array[i - 1] ) {
        smallest = l;
    } else {
        smallest = i;
    }

    if( r <= size && array[r - 1] < array[smallest - 1] ) {
        smallest = r;
    }

    if( smallest != i ) {
        int temp = array[i - 1];
        array[i - 1] = array[smallest - 1];
        array[smallest - 1] = i;
        array[smallest - 1] = temp;

        heapify(smallest);
    }


} // end method heapify

Thanks.
