[SOLVED] function name as array value?

[blueman378]

hi guys,

i have this code,

<?php
function $row[cName](){
global $database;
    $q = "SELECT * FROM " . Games . "
          WHERE category='$row[cName]'
          ORDER BY `gName` ASC
         ";   
    $result = $database->query($q) or die("Error: " . mysql_error());
    /* Error occurred, return given name by default */
    $num_rows = mysql_numrows($result);
if( $num_rows == 0 ){
      return '<font size="2">Games not found!</font>';
    }
        /* Display table contents */
    $content = "$num_rows";
    }
    return $content;


// You can
echo $row[cName]();
?>

 

btw

$row[cName]

is defined in a prior sql statment,

 

anyway my question is is it possible to have the function name as the array results

 

a thing it might be useful to know this code is included in this:

    $q = "SELECT cName FROM " . gsubcat . "
          ORDER BY `cName` ASC
         ";   
    $result = $database->query($q) or die("Error: " . mysql_error());
    /* Error occurred, return given name by default */
    $num_rows = mysql_numrows($result);
    if( $num_rows == 0 ){
      return 'Cats not found!';
    } ?><table border="1" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" ><tr><td><b>Name</b></td><td><b>Games Assigned</b></td><td><b>Actions</b></td> </tr><?php
   while( $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result) ) {
   echo '<tr><td>';
    echo $row[cName]  ?></td>
<td><?php include("gamecount.php"); ?>
 </td> <?php echo '
<td><a href="catprocess.php$action=Delete&$cat=' . $row['cName'] . '">
<img src="../images/Delete.png" alt="Delete" Title="Delete"></a><a href="catprocess.php$action=Browse&$cat=' . $row['cName'] . '">
<img src="../images/Browse.png" alt="Browse" Title="Browse"></a></td></tr>';
    }

?></table>
<br>
<br>
<?php 
//cat form end

?>

 

the error i get is

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE, expecting T_STRING in C:\wamp\www\admin\gamecount.php on line 2

which i gather its saying it was expecting a solid value rather than a variable

 

thanks
