I've been experimenting with having a varaible constant name, but failed miserably... Can I please have a pointer? What I'm trying to do is something like this: $name = "home"; Then read the constant IMG_HOME, like IMG_$name, I'm not sure I make myself understood, but I hope so.. Anders.I dont think you can do that with a constant, but you can do this a normal variable: $test = 'the value of test variable'; $var ='test'; echo $$var; // will echo $test; Clive
