Re: Code contents of a function

although i never needed to do such a thing, but you can open the PHP file with the file system functions fopen,fread,fgets ... and work with it using string functions strpos(),substr() ... File system functions: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.filesystem.php String functions: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.strings.php good luck! Regrads, Khalid Al-Kary

What??? I want to read the code from the function into a string! "Peter Houchin" <php@vfsa.com.au> wrote in message news:DPEPKCNEFOKBCNNANCIPAEHGDDAA.php@vfsa.com.au... so put it in a if or switch statement eg if ($var){ myfunction(); } else { sumotherfunction(); } etc
