when you want to access a variable in nested functions, don't forget that each function depend of local scope, not main scope. this don't work $hello = 'hello'; function a() { function b() { global $hello; echo $hello; } b(); } but this works $hello = 'hello'; function a() { global $hello; // here it is function b() { global $hello; echo $hello; } b(); } and don't forget to declare your variable before using them with global inside a function -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.scope.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+24399 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+24399 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+24399
