You mean?... Your PHP writes out PHP, and you want that PHP to be evaluated? You would need to not write it out and use http://php.net/eval instead. It might be easier to just redesign your functions a little bit though... Calling eval() to do include() sounds like you just didn't plan things quite right for the way PHP works... -- Visit the Zend Store at http://www.zend.com/store/ Wanna help me out? Like Music?
