help with insert query

[harmor]

I have an insert query in a function (I have a good reason) but the text assigned to $eval_code doesn't get inserted

function db_install()
{

$eval_code = eval("\$test = \"".gettemplate("test")."\";");

$query = mysql_query("INSERT INTO hooks (hook_name, phpcode) VALUES ('index_start', ' "$eval_code" ')")or die(mysql_error());

$query = mysql_query("INSERT INTO templates (name, groupname, content) VALUES ('test', 'test', 'Testing')")or die(mysql_error());

echo "Installed<br />.";


return $query;

}

"$eval_code" should be ".$eval_code."

that's only for arrays but I'll try it.

No its not. You need to connect any $variable with a dollar sign, with . . . . . otherwise it will give parse errors.

Also " " parses all $ signs. So IF you just remove the two double quotes around $eval_code it will also work.
