Storing php code as a variable

[christo16]

Hello,

I would like to store php code into a variable, heres an example:

 

function test ($var) {

$var; //I also tried echo $var;

return;

}

 

$string = "echo \"test\" ";

test ($string);

 

When it works, it will only output "echo test", instead of just "test".

Thank you for any help!

Try this

 

$string = echo "test";

test ($string);

You want to use eval().  Here's the documentation: http://us2.php.net/eval.

 

Best,

try this instead (tested and working)

 

function test ($var) {

echo $var; //I also tried echo $var;

return;

}

 

$string = "test";

test ($string);

}
