    Storing/Retrieving/Executing Php

    I want to creating an application where all my php(with html) is stored in the database.
    So my index.php would find the appropriate the php file associated with the index page. It should execute this new code
    as part of the original index.php. Can you please let me know if it is doable?


    Thanks,

      Yes this is doable with http://php.net/eval

      Why you would want to do something like that I'm not sure - a database
      would be more suited to storing the data as opposed to the code.

          Yes. Read about the eval() function; you will have to use it
          extensively:

          PHP: eval - Manual
          http://www.php.net/eval
          Evaluate a string as PHP code


          Cheers,

              :> I want to creating an application where all my php(with html) is

              The idea is to have bunch of templates and associate them with a page. So for instance,
              each user can have totally different looking index page based on their preferences.

              So when a user is directed to a index.php page. This page would have the code
              to find an appropriate template and render it.

              I am still having problems with using eval function though. Here's what I am trying to do:

              <?php
              $var = "2344";
              $phpCode = '<html><body><? php echo $var; ?> </body></html>';
              echo $phpCode. "\n";
              eval ("\$phpCode = \"$phpCode\";") ;
              echo $phpCode. "\n";
              ?>


              No output why??


              Thanks,
