php-code out of mysql?

[Anon]

Hi,

is it possible to read a script from a mysql table and then to process this script?

If its not possible within the same document i thought of reading the script out, writing it to a temp file and including this file...

Anybody have an idea?

Yes it is possible, read about eval().

Note: dangerous, don't do it unless you are 100% certain it is safe.

thanks, but what could be dangerous about it?

Storing data from a user could be unsafe. If you insert all your own data and there's no way for others to insert or modify it, you should be fine.

I see, thanks but that won't be the problem 🙂
