Re: constants

hi, you can use constants whenever you want something whose value you don't want changed accidently.for e.g. i use a constant to keep track of the path. if i am at the root level then i store "./" in it. and if i am one folder under the root then i store "../" in it. now as i tend to name variables like this strPath (str for string) i often end up changing the value of strPath to something else in the script. to stop this from happening i use constants HTH, Haseeb -------Original Message------- From: Michael Müller Date: Monday, July 21, 2003 04:22:03 PM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] constants hi, why should I use constants? thx for help Michael -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
