Is there a way??

[almightyegg]

Is there a way to take a variable and split the actual variable apart. Eg. $p1d2 I would like to remove the $ and split it into an array [0] = 1 and [1] = 2

 

Any ideas? If possible at all

Check out the functions:

chunk_split()

explode()

No I mean take the variable $p1d2 and turn it into just p12d - stop it being a variable..but still have the name of it

As I said last time you where playing with this idea, you need to rethink your logic. $variables simply hold values, they can be named whatever, but dynamically naming variables and trying to manipulate them in such a way is not usually the right way of going about things.

 

Maybe if you explained the bigger picture we could offer an alternative.

Ya, I'm confused as to why you would need to do this. Seems like there might be a more effective solution to your problem.

It's needed in this function type thing:

$im = imagecreate(150, 100);

$i = 1;
$h = 1;
while($i <> 16 && $h <> 11){
$p = ${"p" . $i . "d" . $h};
$f = ($i-1)*10;
$s = $i*10;
$g = ($h-1)*10;
$r = $h*10;

$black = imagecolorallocate($im, 102, 51, 0);
$red = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 0, 0);
$brown = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 147, 28);
$turq = imagecolorallocate($im, 153, 255, 255);

$flares = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM itemsowned WHERE userid = '{$mem['id']}' and code = 'flar'"));
$vmap = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM itemsowned WHERE userid = '{$mem['id']}' and code = 'vmap'"));
$flares = $flares[amount];
$vmap = $vmap[amount];

if($p == x){
imagefilledrectangle($im, $f, $g, $s, $r, $black);
}elseif($p == v && $vmap == 1){
imagefilledrectangle($im, $f, $g, $s, $r, $turq);
}elseif($p == m && $vmap == 1){
imagefilledrectangle($im, $f, $g, $s, $r, $turq);
}else{
imagefilledrectangle($im, $f, $g, $s, $r, $brown);
}

if($i == 15 && $h == 10){
$h = $h+1;
$i = $i+1;
}elseif($i == 15){
$i = 1;
$h = $h+1;
}else{
$i = $i+1;
}

}

 

This works (mostly) but I want to add another if.

 

Basically I want to say if(the-point-the-user-is-on == p$id$h){ etc..

 

That make more sense?

Oh my, the answer was right in my face oops. Sorry guys it's sorted though that function still isn't working 100% and I've been trying to fix that for days.

it shows

The data is there for it to make the rest but isn't...
