How to string replace a variable name in a file with a session variable name ?

Hi All,

 

I'm using some of my own PHP coding in conjunction with a WYSIWYG website program (to save time) which uses inbuilt controls to allow me create a solution. Everything compiles fine and works, however I find I need to manually edit some of the compiled / created files with custom information / settings etc in order to make things work better (this is due to the rigid structure of some of the pre-built controls I am using in this program).

 

Anyway, I'm looking to create a PHP script that will go into the files that need manual editing and make the changes for me. I'm doing well so far, reading in the required file, and using the string replace command etc as a prototype, however I need to change a php variable string in one of my files to read as a session variable string. E.G I need the string "$Variable" in the file to actually say "$_SESSION['sessionvariable']" instead.

 

Can anyone help me with a piece of code that may be able to do this ?

If that $Variable thing was your actual problem then I would say

Rather than change the generated code, can you simply have something do

$Variable = $_SESSION['sessionvariable'];

before executing the file?

If that's not your actual problem, what is?
