I tried declaring > the x = 1 in hello() global and I tried declaring it static. Possibilities: function hello($x) { print 'hello ' . $name; $x = 1; } function bye($x) { if ($x == 1) print 'x = 1'; else print 'x != 1'; } hello($y); bye($y); -------------- function hello() { print 'hello ' . $name; $x = 1; return $x; } function bye($x) { if ($x == 1) print 'x = 1'; else print 'x != 1'; } $y = hello(); bye($y); -------------- function hello() { global $x; print 'hello ' . $name; $x = 1; } function bye() { global $x; if ($x == 1) print 'x = 1'; else print 'x != 1'; } hello(); bye(); Cheers!
