Re: Config files

I tend do do something similar here: I usually set up my arrays and then access them later using the GLOBALS superglobal array. For some projects I tend to use multidimensional arrays because I can do something like. $config['db']['name'] = 'something'; $config['db']['user'] = 'someone'; $config['db']['pass'] = 'password'; ... This can sometimes be an over kill, however that could work for you. -- BigDog On Wed, 2003-08-13 at 08:19, CPT John W.
