Re: Execute statements from a string???

Thanks for the answers! Next question. How can I structure the string and how do I echo the HTML and the variable contents? I want the following output to the browser: <td>Hello...</td> $somevar = "Hello..."; $string = "<td><?php echo $somevar ?></td>\n"; or $string = "<td>$somevar</td>\n"; eval() ??? Thanks!
