RE: [PHP-DB] Parsing of db results by PHP
Hrm, yup... that does what I want... thanks :) It might be a little bit messy... because it'll most likely be embedded in text :) I'm making a weblog system for myself, so the full field might be "blah blah blah blah blah" which will most likely get messy...

RE: [PHP-DB] Parsing of db results by PHP
use this PHP function: eval() As quoted from the PHP manual: "eval() evaluates the string given in code_str as PHP code. Among other things, this can be useful for storing code in a database text field for later execution" Further info is in the manual under the Miscellaneous Functions chapter (XXXVIII). -Original Message- From: Robert Gormley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, September 09, 2001 1:18 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP-DB] Parsing of db results by PHP Hi all, I have a MySQL db which contains table test, field test... one of the entries is "" Where external() is a function i've written which outputs simple text.

[PHP-DB] Parsing of db results by PHP
Hi all, I have a MySQL db which contains table test, field test... one of the entries is "" Where external() is a function i've written which outputs simple text. I want to be able to put calls to this function into the database, and have them parsed on rendering... With the above example, the raw code is just spat to the browser, and doesn't hit the interpreter. Any ideas?
