eval();

[Sparkz]

I have a variable

PHP Code:

$myvar = "http://my.host.com/script.php?var=$content['var']&var2=$content['somethingelse']"; 


Now, I want to use eval() to evaluate the contents of $myvar into another var, something like

PHP Code:

eval ("$url = \"$myvar\";"); 


This gives me errors, tho...

Parse error: parse error in /usr/local/web/modules/mod_http.inc(7) : eval()'d code on line 1


can anyone help me with this one?

$myvar = 'http://my.host.com/script.php?var=$content[var]&var2=$content[somethingelse]';
eval ("\$url = \"$myvar\";");

Thx.
I wish I could get it working referencing array elements like $var['lala'] instead of just $var[lala] (which is deprecated)

Since this is code that will leave my hands and end up at a fair few of our customers servers, I'd preffer to do it 'right' first time off...

[Admin]

Don't worry about using $array[index] inside strings, it's not deprecated. It's only when you are using the variables as "stand alone", i.e [minicode]$array['index'] == 'foo'[/minicode].
