I am working on a project that uses an index.php page. Depending on the variable in the URL, a different php page is included. I have a config.php that contains variables that are accessible from any page. That is the easy part. I have some pages pulling HTML out of a database. I would like to be able to reference some of the variables in the config.php in the database blob field. Here is an example: index.phphalln_\@_otc_\._edu ------ <html><head>...etc <?php include 'config.php'; if (blabla) { include "thispage.php"; } else { include "thatpage.php"; } ?> config.php ------ <?php $this_var=1; $that_var="Nothing"; ?> test.php ------ <?php $query="SELECT * from table"; $result=mysql_query($query) or die ("Cannot process query"); $row=mysql_fetch_row($result); echo $row[1]; ?> MySQL record: ------ id,year,month,day,entry 1,2005,01,01,This is a test<br><? echo $that_var; ?> _____________________________ I have tried using <br>>? echo $that_var; ?< and I have tried escaping everything, but that still didn't work. Any ideas? Nathaniel Hall halln_\@_otc_\._edu -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
