*Warning* I don't really suggest that you use eval() unless absolutely necessary. But in this case it does what I *think* you want it to do.

What do you mean by "it doesn't work" ?
It does (the minitest, I mean).

I have a PHP file that outputs HTML to the Internet to a user. The user also wants to be able to
print that output to a printer. The user wants it formatted with page breaks in the proper place
and so on. Using one PHP script to do both, short of a line to display and a line to print, is
there a way to do this easily or am I in a pond of alligators? Most of the output is using an echo
statement. I thought of trying to take a var and set it top echo or write according to what is
needed at that time. Here is my minitest.


<?php
echo "<P>The test is starting";

$echowrite = "echo ";

$echowrite."<P>This is the first line.";

eval ($echowrite);


echo "<P>You should have seen the first line by now.";

?>
