[SOLVED] Dynamic Variables in $GLOBALS

[electricshoe]

Heya I'm trying to set a dynamic variable as a global in a function. It's a simple function that takes a $result from a mysql query and gets the array with a custom variable name.

 

function queryData($data)
{
$GLOBALS[$data] = mysql_fetch_array($GLOBALS['result']);
}
queryData("customRowName");

echo $customRowName['id'];

 

This code doesn't work. The query is fine, I can do print_r($GLOBALS[$data]) and it returns my array.

 

I've tried $GLOBALS[${$data}] and it doesn't work either. I'm getting a notice that the variable is unset for both of them

 

Notice: Undefined variable: customRowName in ---- on line 20

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks:)

$GLOBALS[$data] is an ARRAY

so you need to treat it like one..

 

ie

foreach($GLOBALS[$data] as $ndata)
{
echo $ndata;
}

 

edit:

as a note for the ID use

$GLOBALS[$data]['id']

You're beautiful.

 

$GLOBALS['customRowName']['id'] loves me and I'm a noob with for statements so I have been educated.
