Editing Variables outside php page.

[xchrisx]

I was wondering if I would be able to change the contents of a variable in another php file. I know i could use a txt file or a database but maybe is there a way to directly edit variables in a php file from another php file.

Thank you

Well i'm not really sure what your looking for but if you need to track a variable across pages i would throw it in a session. Can you give me a better idea of what your trying to do? More detials.

I'm just trying to do a simple admin page to change some the main article content on a site. On the page with the articles, i have print statments with variables that contain the article content(message, title etc...). I have the variablese stored in another php file that is included in the main site page. I just want to see if it was possible to change the contents of those variables in another form page...It works fine with the default values but i can't seem to change them, it was just a long shot. I'm just trying to advoid using a database or a file. The people i'm writing it for do not understand html or any other computer language for that matter🙂

I"m just trying to see if there's a simpler route to take other than a database.
