Pulling Vars in from MySQL

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Sep 04.2004

inside MySQL have a table w/ fields of ‘id’, ‘module’, ‘variableName’, ‘dataValue’.

Let’s say the gallery.php is the current page. At the begging I would like to pull all related variables in from MySQL, create variables from the ‘variableName’, and give the var it’s corrisponding value.

beggining code….

while(…sql conditions…)
$results=$db->Execute(“select id, variableName, dataValue from {$siteid}_Var where module=’gallery’ order by id”);

…now how can I create the variables?

# Create empty, named array variables
$ids = $varNames = $dataValues = array();

# Run the query
$results=$db->Execute("select id, variableName, dataValue from {$siteid}_Var where module='gallery' order by id");

if(!$results){ # upon error
echo "Error: ".mysql_error(); # display error description
} else { # if no error
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($results)){ # loop through database fields, based on result
# fill in empty array variables with results
$ids[] = $row['id'];
$varNames[] = $row['variableName'];
$dataValues[] = $row['dataValue'];
}
}
# variable usage example
foreach($ids as $id){
echo "$idn";
}
[/code]

Success!
