parising php code inside a string..

[ube]

Hi!

I have a problem with parsing phpcode insida a string. I'm trying to read code from my databse wicth includes both html and php code.

A simple example:

<?
$string = "<? echo 'moo'; ?>";

?>
The cow says: <? echo $string; ?><br>

Offcourse isn't this the code I use, but it's the general idea..

Regards,

as far as i know what you are trying to do is not possible. try:

<?
function echoString()
{
echo "moo";
}
?>

<? echoString(); ?>

Check out the [man]eval[/man] function. It's function is to "evaluate a string as PHP code".
