note 82775 added to function.define

You can store your constant as the value of a variable like this: $variable=VARIABLE; To access the constant, do this: constant($variable). Beware: if your variable changes, then you loose your reference to the constant - but the constant itself will not change. I've found this especially useful for storing the constant string (i.e. VARIABLE) in a database. ---- Server IP: 209.41.74.194 Probable Submitter: 70.136.41.87 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.define.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/82775 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82775/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82775/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82775/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82775/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82775/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82775/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82775 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/82775 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
