I'm asking again the same question, coz i guess my question wasn't clear.
i just need to retreive vars inside query.txt, my regular expression seems to be
correct for me, but i don't find why it doesn't wrk
------ Starting query.txt
select * FROM `table` where id='$value' order by name
------ Ending query.txt
------ Starting parse.php
<?php
$fcontents = join('' , file('query.txt'));
preg_match_all("/^('\$(.*)')/si", $fcontents,$matches);
print_r($matches)
?>
--------- Ending parse.php
rewriting query is another question, that i agree also.
Thanks
