PHP... within... PHP!

Hi!

I have a MySQL database that has some page HTML which is echoed into a template file.

<?php
    /* Connecting, selecting database */
    $link = mysql_connect("localhost", "username", "pwl")
        or die("Could not connect");
    mysql_select_db("tycooneden_com") or die("Could not select database");

$query = "SELECT * FROM HTML WHERE page = '$page'";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die("Query failed");
$foo=mysql_fetch_array($result);

/* Start the clan defining */

$page=$foo['page'];
$code=$foo['code'];

mysql_close($link);
?>

<?=$code?>

The only prob is.... the cell that the HTML is in is text, and, the PHP code within that HTML isn't run, it jus shows in the source. What am I doing wrong?

Alex.

Hi,

It is not clear to me what you mean, nut I think you should have a look at the function eval()

Yes, you'll have to use eval(). Break it apart at every <?php and ?>, so you can tell what to evaluate.
