eval() treats the passed argument as if it were inline PHP code. You're
effectively doing this:
<?php
function somefunc($text,$n)
{
for($i=0;$i<$n;$i++){
echo $text;
}
}
xxx <?php somefunc("yyy",3); ?> zzz
?>
So the extra set of PHP tags is a problem, and xxx and zzz must both be
valid code (i.e. terminating statements with semi-colons, concatenating
strings with a period...)
I'm guessing what you really want is:
eval('somefunc("yyy",3);')
In that case, you could use a regex to extract the portion of your text
string that's enclosed by PHP tags.
