Re: Hashes in strings

Hi, I think this will accomplish what your trying to achieve. $str = "I can use $hash[vars] in strings"; However, this will not work for multi dimensional arrays... eg: $hash['var']['var2'] = "Elephant"; $str = "I can NOT use $hash[var][var2] in strings"; will output "I can NOT use Array[var2] in strings". For this you have to jump out of the string and use contcatination... eg: $str = "I can use ".$hash[var][var2]." in strings"; will output "I can use Elephant in strings".
