I don't think create_global() is of any use to you in this situation -- you're just wasting the time taken to do the function call and return. Just do either: function org_display_title_code() { global $page_title; echo 'This is title1 -> ' . $page_title; } Or: function org_display_title_code() { echo 'This is title1 -> ' . $GLOBALS['page_title']; } Cheers!
