Thanks, Karl: As others have answered, no php doesn't work that way. However, you can still send/receive strings through a url via a $_GET) and direct the actions of a receiving php script and you can do the same thing via a $_POST. As such, a "php:someFunction()" could be a: url?php=someFunction Where the receiving script takes the command and runs someFunction(). However, I would shorten it a bit and say url?php=18 Where php would be the command to run a function and 18 would be the function you want to run. So, while you can't use the same syntax as javascript, you can get the same performance.

Even if the PHP code you're executing is through localhost, because PHP needs the server to run, it has to be run on the server, and exposing functions directly like this would expose all sorts of security issues (imagine calling up a getUserDetails() on a website you're not logged into for example, which would mean every function of a system would need some sort of user auth check and would slow the whole thing to a crawl) Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk I see. Very good point. Thanks Ash. I figured it was because of the whole pre-processing part of PHP. Thanks for the explination. Best, Karl DeSaulniers Design Drumm http://designdrumm.com

Re: [PHP] PHP Reference
Thank you Andre. Yes, I had been doing it that way, but was just wondering if PHP had a reference like that of javascript with the colin : in it.

[PHP] php reference behavior
hi, i'm running into some weird behavior with php references. i distilled it down to some test code below: 'dean' ); $var1['arrayref'] = & $array; $var2 = $var1; echo "var1:\n"; print_r( $var1 ); echo "var2:\n"; print_r( $var2 ); $var1['arrayref'] = NULL; echo "var1:\n"; print_r( $var1 ); echo "var2:\n"; print_r( $var2 ); ?> it seems that setting a hash key to a reference to something, and then repointing that key to NULL, apparently sets the original 'something' to NULL instead of just 'repointing' the hash key! am i missing something obvious here, or is this behavior not what you'd normally expect? i wrote similar code in perl, and it behaved as i expected: the second hash still pointed to the original target (i am almost certain c/c++ and java also behave this way). so what is going on with php? does anyone know how to get it to do what i want it to do -- i.e., merely unset the key mapping of one of the hashes, leaving the other hash still pointing at the target? thansk for any insight you might be able to give! xomina -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
