fmmarzoa: In PHP 4.2.2/CLI, I had no problem setting define()'s to the contents of variables: <? $foo = "PHP"; define( "bar", "$foo is a good thing." ); print bar; ?> Will print "PHP is a good thing.". A notable difference, however, between my example and yours is your use of single-quotes. Strings in single quotes (') will not be expanded: print '$foo'; Will print '$foo', not the contents of $foo. http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php --gv -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.constants.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+26588 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+26588 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+26588
