Ohboy Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Hi, I'm new to Php programming so forgive me if this is a noob question. Right now in my PHP scripts I'm using the actual name of database, host, username and password to connect to MySql database. Is there a way in which I can set all these values to a variable in one place like we do in C++ iusing #define and use that variable everywhere I need it?. So that in case any change occurs I won't have to look for them everywhere and change them individually. I know there must be a way to do this. Can you please point me in any direction? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taquitosensei Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 put this in a php file that you include anywhere you'd need these define("YOUR_GLOBAL_VARIABLE_NAME","value"); Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
