Subject: [PHP] variables within variables - question
Im having a VERY hard time trying to explain this
Here is a bit of my code...
for ($i = 0; $i < $num_fields; $i++)
{
$field = mysql_field_name($result, $i);
$field2 = "<".$field;
$output = str_replace($field2, $field), $output);
}
The problem I'm having here is that the variable $field contains a
string (a name of one of my fields in my table). I need for the
variable $field to actually point to the another variable, not just
contain the string.
This little loop here is supposed to go through a RTF file and replace
all the $field2 it finds with $field.
Am I making sense?
THANKS!!!
