I have a php file that has this in it... //Make logChatInput.php $dataBase = "users"; $logChatInput = fopen($newDir."/logChatInput.php", "w"); $logChatInput_contents = <<<EOD <?php $chatInput = addslashes($_GET["chatInput"]); date_default_timezone_set('America/Chicago'); $time = date('g:i A'); $crappychat_service = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", ""); mysql_select_db("{$dataBase}", $crappychat_service); $sql = "INSERT INTO messages (Message) VALUES('".$chatInput."')"; mysql_query($sql, $crappychat_service); ?> EOD; fwrite($logChatInput, $logChatInput_contents); fclose($logChatInput); My problem is I want ONLY $dataBase to be recognized as a the value it holds and not anything else. The php is giving an error because I don't have $chatInput declared outside the EOD. I only want the $dataBase variable to be associated with the current PHP file and not the one being written, so I put it in curly braces, but it still recognizes other "variables". How would have it only recognize $dataBase in the EOD?
