RE: [PHP] Question on eval()

Note that vars[1] is created with ' ' so that the $-names are not interpreted. I assume that when the text is read from the file, it comes with the $s and the ending semi-colon (;). <?php $vars[1] = '$scar=\"3\";$anrede=\"Herr\";$pf_name=\"wert\";$pf_kontem=\"tzrtzetrz\";$pf _kontel=\"zuoioopöl\";$zeit=\"\";$pf_wt=\"löjlköjklö\";$sto=\"2\";'; print $vars[1]."\n\n"; $xx = stripslashes($vars[1]); print $xx."\n\n"; $tmpeval=$xx; // $vars[1] is where the data is in my answer-array eval ($tmpeval); print $scar; ?> -----Original Message----- From: heinisch@creaction.de [mailto:heinisch@creaction.de] Sent: Wednesday, March 27, 2002 10:34 AM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] Question on eval() Hi Folks, I save an ascii-sentence, representing my vars and their values in the db after I request them, I try to eval them. here is what I get back from the db $scar=\"3\";$anrede=\"Herr\";$pf_name=\"wert\";$pf_kontem=\"tzrtzetrz\";$pf_ kontel=\"zuoioopöl\";$zeit=\"\";$pf_wt=\"löjlköjklö\";$sto=\"2\"; (values are just typed in ;-) ) then I try to eval them with $tmpeval=$vars[1]; // $vars[1] is where the data is in my answer-array eval ("\$tmpeval = \"$tmpeval\";"); after this ther should each var have it´s values like $scar should be 3 $anrede should be Herr I also tried $tmpeval=stripslashes($tmpeval); but that doesn´t work either. Can anybody see my mistake, or is there any length-limit in eval ?? TIA Oliver -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
