How can I check if "<php>" exists within a string? I have tried this but is always returns false even when it should be true (something to do with UTF8 i think) $PhpTagCheck = '<PHP>'; $PhpTagCheck = strpos($contents, $PhpTagCheck); if($PhpTagCheck == true){} else {}

FYI: I have tried exec() with no luck

or sometimes it might just be "echo $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];"

Hi guys, I have a PHP variable $var which is "$header = 'http://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].'/'; header("location: $header");" now some how in my php file I need to execute this variable as PHP any ideas, all help is much appreciated

SOLVED and incase anyone everneeds it in the future where I had require_one do this instead http://www.acuras.co.uk/articles/88-php-include-a-file-and-store-contents-to-variable-using-output-buffer Thanks to everyone who offered adive and help

include yields the same result as require

TeddyKiller I appreciated what you are saying but is there a way to get a file other than using require_once, the file structure must remain as is, just need a new way for require_once

someone must have an idea?

I have done a bit more fiddiling and it is definetly becuase of the require_once so I need a new way of doing this

having function.php as return "AAA"; instead of with require_once places the contents in the right spot, so I need to do something other than require_once in order to dsiplay the whole page

I have no idea how to do this, but I am thinking what if I convert the echothis.php to HTML so not (or maybe I have no idea) have require_once('echothis.php) and have phphtml('echothis.php') and even if this is not a viable solution for this problem I would like to know if such a PHP function exists thanks The require_one is making the content display early so I need another way of calling, that is the problem, or at least part of

for some stupid reason it is echoing before it compiles it all together with the other code

in essence I want to call a PHP file which is like an "app" with tables etc (whatever I write) into my CMS on the relevant page, so if there are any better ways people can suggest

monkeytooth thanks for your help but unfortuanately I cannot use your code, so if anyone else has any ideas

so what is the "correct" way to do this

Hi guys, I have an index.php page which run some code and executes a few functions which should echo it in a certain location, instead it continues to echo in the top left of the index.php echothis.php (file that should be echoed to certain location) <?php echo $_SESSION['login_to']; ?> <h4>WLWW</h4> function2.php (file calling the function whcih call for insert purposes echothis.php <?php function insertt(){$require_once = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/echothis.php'; require_once($require_once); } ?> function1.php (calls function2.php where needed) <?php function go(){ insertt();?> index.php <H4>WELCOME</H4><?php go(); ?> I have left out the top require require_onces for the files but as you can see index.php require_onces function1.php, function1.php calss function2.php and function2.php echothis.php any help is much appreciated

thorpe can you give me code suggestion

the main point is why does this error occur and why for the line previously indicated?

okay, in a tbl field I have (as an example) AAA: <AL1><AL2><b><AL3> furthermore in another table field I have BBB: <AL1>How is it going?<AL2>Well<AL3>Thats great I have code which works that replaces <AL1> etc from "AAA" with the relevant content from "BBB" finally what happens is this $qry_AL = "SELECT max(position) FROM `articles` WHERE `uri`='$uri'"; $result_AL= $mysqli->query($qry_AL, MYSQLI_STORE_RESULT); $AL = mysqli_fetch_array($result_AL); $AL = $AL['0']; for($i=0;$i<=$AL;$i++) { ${'AL'.$i} = implode("", ${'AL'.$i}); } return $PL1 this code finds the max(position) in a table (eg 5), what happens is it implodes $AL1 array into $AL1 or $AL2 array into $AL2 etc but it is resulting in the already mentioned error

your code cannot be used as sometimes it may get to $AL1000 it has to be completely self running (as such)

$AL1[0] = "hi"; $AL[1] = "and"; as an example (is predefined) pulled from another table

the code get the max position (eg 1) from a table then as a loop (for) it implodes all $AL1 arraqy data into a sting variable $AL1 then does a return

can you elaborate on exactly why

thorpe could you provide an example using my code above please

what are you using to encrypt?
