how to release variable name

[nishmgopal]

Hi guys,

 

I jsut wanted to know what the syntax was for releasing a variable name in php so I can use it again...

 

is it something like

 

mysql_release(variable name)??

 

thanks

Or you can simply overwrite an existing variable with a new value

 

$var1 = "ABC";
$var1 = 123;
