Creating a varable with a name held in a string

I have the following code;_ $sql = "select * from text where id = '$id' "; $row = fetch_row_row( $sql, $db ); $img_loc = $row["img_loc"]; $text_type = $row["text_type"]; $seq = $row["seq"]; $rec_type = $row["rec_type"]; $section = $row["section"]; $code = $row["code"]; $repeat = $row["repeat"]; $description = $row["description"] ); $text = $row["text"] ); Was wondering if there was a clever way of doing this with foreach on $row. something like foreach( $row as $index => value ) { create_var( $index, $value ); } So the question is is there a function like create_var which takes a string and a value and creates a variable?
