Greetings.
Does anyone know how to do this?
I have,
$var
$var2
In a field called two_vars in a MySQL db.
I am calling the variables inside PHP document.
In that document I am saying:
$var = "time"
$var2 = "clock"
<!-- I do the query in MySQL here -->
echo "$two_vars";
But the what prints out is
$var
$var2
not "time" and "clock". I know that is what is in the database, but I want
it to replace the variables when printed in the PHP file.
Does this make sense to anyone? Does anyone know how to do this?
If I understand your question properly I'd explode $two_vars with
whatever seperator you have between them and then you'll need to use
eval to get your results. Maybe something like...
$dbVars=explode(',',$two_vars); // Assuming comma seperator
foreach($dbVars AS $key => $value) {
$eval="\$temp=".$value.";";
eval($eval);
echo $temp;
}
