short hack, assuming your eval echo's out to the browser (which I can't see
how else you'd expect something to 'return' from an eval'd statement
ob_start();
eval($foo);
$result = ob_get_clean();

hi,
I have on one website boxes with information, pulled from mysql. the
content can be string, php code, url of other website or url to specific
file etc.
currently, I have something like this:
// connect to db
// mysql_query() to get box content and content_type
switch($content_type)
{
case 'string':
echo $content;
break;
case 'php_code':
eval($content);
break;
case 'website':
echo ''.$content.';
break;
case 'file'
require_once($file);
echo $file_content;
// etc.
}
but, now I have to change the code to assign content to variable and the
variable will be printed later. I tried something like this:
switch($content_type)
{
case 'string':
$record = $content;
break;
case 'php_code':
$record = eval($content);
break;
case 'website':
$record = ''.$content.';
break;
case 'file'
require_once($file);
$record = $file_content;
// etc.
}
and it works - except eval() part. cant do $record =
eval($content); ?!?!?!?
thanks
afan
