To ulderico - writing self-modifying code is something you do not want to do for sufficiently complex tasks. Debugging it is a royal pain, in the more complex cases it's usually impossible. I suggest to keep away from using those techniques. A skilled programmer can always get the functionality he wants without refraining to questionable stuff like this. It was bad when we did it with assembly in the early 80's, and it's still evil today. Only today the tools allow for other ways of solving problems. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.eval.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+42943 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+42943&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+42943&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
