You can't use arrays in constants, so I came up with this two line function to get around it.
<?php
function const_array($constant) {
$array = explode(",",$constant);
return $array;
};
?>
So now if you define a constant like
<? define('myconstant','item1,item2,item3') ?>
and then use my function
<? $myarray = const_array(myconstant); ?>
$myarray will now contain an array with
item1
item2
item3
Hope this is useful for someone...
