Random Variable Problem

[Clarkeez]

Hey.. Weird problem

 

I'm trying to use information in an array inside a function, but when I call it, the information is not there.

 

Ill show you

 

<?php
    $c['guild'] = array('region' => 'eu', 'realm' => 'kazzak', 'name' => 'almost imba');

    function get_guild_api_url() {
$out = 'http://'.$c['guild']['region'].'.battle.net/api/wow/guild/'.$c['guild']['realm'].'/'.$c['guild']['name'].'';
return $out;
    }

    echo get_guild_api_url();
   // it shows http://.battle.net/api/wow/guild//
   // as you can see nothing from the array is there
?>

 

Any ideas?

Just because you defined $c outside the function does not mean it is available inside the function.

 

Since your function only needs the region, realm, and name, pass those three bits of information as arguments to get_guild_api_url():

function get_guild_api_url($region, $realm, $name) {

Ohh they have to be arguments!

 

Ok mate thanks, I thought function could access outside variables..

Nope. It's one of the things PHP does differently from damn near the rest of the programming world.
