Re: strings in a function return

Here is a snippet example. function assign() {

        global $adminurl, $string;
        top();
        if ($string) {
                $data = explode ("|", $string);
                echo "$data[0]";

} <form> $array = array("$new_cat,$assigned_to","$job","$assigned_by") $string = implode("|",$array);

        return  $string;

} The variables that form $array are from the form.... David Robley wrote:

I was doing it like so ==> $string = array(var1, var2...); return string; I also tried to implode the array into a string and return the result, but no go. David Robley wrote:

Hey all. I just started venturing into functions. I have a function that displays a form, but I have a problem with getting the multiple strings back after the submit. Im tryed a return statement at the bottom of the function, but it cannot take more than one string. I tried turning the array into a string and returning just the string made sure that the string name was in the global list, still no luck. Is it even possible to return mulitple values from a function?? Thanks

You can only return one variable from a function, but that variable can be an array. This is probably obvious, but you are assigning the result of the function to a variable? Eg $result = my_function($my_parameter, $my_parameter);

Perhaps if you could show some of the code?
