[PHP] vars in echoed file_get_contents string

2004-01-30 Thread Shawn McKenzie
I'm having a brain fart here: ---file.php $myvar = Hello!; $stuff = file_get_contents(file.html); echo $stuff; ---file.html b$myvar/b Any ideas why when $stuff is echoed I get $myvar and not Hello? Thanks! -Shawn -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit:
