Hi there,

I'm new to OOP in PHP and was wondering if you could help me. I have a script I would like to put into a function, inside a class. It basically sets the name of a variable depending on the value of another variable

var $i="h";
var $r=i."h";
var $$r="hello world";

I would be very greatfull if someone could tell me how to do this. I've searched the net and these forums but with no luck. As I said I'm new to this. If someone can help I would be most greatfull.

    I don't quite get what you mean so i hope this helps:

    $NameOfVar = "var123";
	$$NameOfVar = "hello";
	echo $var123;

//Thrown in a function

function setVarToVal($var, $val){
	global $$var;
	$$var = $val;
}

setVarToVal("VAR456", "world");
echo $VAR456;

    Hope that helps you out.

      Excelent, that was just what I was looking for. Thanks

      All the best

      -Steve

        Hope you stick around
