private_guy Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Hi there, I want to be able to change PHP Strings e.g.($SITE_NAME=SITE) by using a HTML with PHP form. Okay, here is what I have, my config.php which has all the codes in it, this is my cofig.php file: <? //Config file for ~DSR~ define("SITE","www.someone.com/"); //Site ?> Now I want to know how to make another file called form.php with forms and boxes which can control SITE, but how? Maybe with st_replace? dunno. Please Help. Thanks very much for your help and support.

private_guy Posted July 5, 2007 Author Share Posted July 5, 2007 Sorry, okay, you have the following string: $SITE_NAME which is in the config file, now I want to change that string by a HTML or PHP File (a form). I want to make an admin cp so when the admin wants to change the settings of config.php that he doesn't have to change it from config.php, he could do it by the admin cp. So I want something like that, a form which can change PHP Strings. Now do you understand?
