mysql_db_create($name);

Can I do that?

$wuzzup = "wuzzup";
$file = mysql_db_create($wuzzup);

and it will create a database for me named wuzzup?

I can't do it manually, because it is for a local intranet, and I need people to create them as they please.

$wuzzup will come off of a form and could be anything.

But it seems that mysql_db_create only takes it in this form ("wuzzup")

Is there a way around this?

Yes, you can always do that. A string is a string, whether it's typed out or in the form of a variable ... it's still a string.

Thanks, but the reason I ask, is because it seems like it doen't work. maybe I just did something wrong.

I'll check again. It's almost like it reads it as a constanant value instead of interpreting the value of the string.

Hmm, maybe the variable is in '$single' quotes?
