I am trying to get it to fill in the $path variable with what is in
$path. It seams eval does not work for this and it does not work on
it's own. What can I do to make this work
$path="/home/sites/home";
$fp3=fopen ("location.inc","w")or die("unable to open file (location.inc)");
$str='<?';
fwrite($fp3,"$str \n");
$str='include("$path/inc/dataconf.inc");';
fwrite($fp3,"$str \n");
$str='include("$path/inc/lang.eng.inc");';
fwrite($fp3,"$str \n");
$str='include("$path/inc/function2.inc");';
fwrite($fp3,"$str \n");
MT> this is what the eval() command equates to
MT> $str = "include("$path/inc/dataconf.inc");";
MT> that should make it clearer (??)
