As long as you do this *before* you use the vars, you're ok. Otherwise, you're going to have to use $GLOBALS. If you want a better way to do this, you could use object vars and then use get_object_vars, do a foreach, and put them in $GLOBALS. > > On 24/08/2004, at 1:38 AM, Jay Blanchard wrote: > > > [snip] > > Is there a quicker way to globalise something other than: > > > > $a = 'foo'; > > $b = 'bah'; > > ... > > $GLOBALS['a'] = $a; > > $GLOBALS['b'] = $b; > > > > ?? > > > > I was hoping for something like > > > > $a = 'foo'; > > $b = 'bah'; > > ... > > makeGlobal('a','b') /*or*/ makeGlobal($a,$b); > > [/snip] > > > > According to http://us3.php.net/language.variables.scope > > you could do > > something like > > > > global $a, $b, $c, ...; > > --- > Justin French > http://indent.com.au > -- DB_DataObject_FormBuilder - The database at your fingertips http://pear.php.net/package/DB_DataObject_FormBuilder paperCrane --Justin Patrin--
