Hello all, I have a slight problem. I am storing an email template in a MySQL DB. Portions of the email have text that need to be replaced with variable values when run through the script ex: <snip> Sehr geehrte(r) Frau/Herr {%Last_Name%} , Dies ist eine automatische Zusendung von ACNS Billing and Support Software. Ihre Zahlung von DM {%Prev_Total%} fuer ihr ACNS Domain und/oder ihr Internet Flatrate <snip>
As you can see. I am using the {% and %} to delimit the parts that need to
be replaced. I can't get the replacements to work right though. Can someone help? why don´t you store something like:
Sehr geehrte(r) Frau/Herr $Last_Name , an then use the eval() function, to fill your vars? Otherwise you have to str_replace() this {%Last_Name%}, think that would be more work. HTH Oliver
