echo PHP from MySQL? Like, what do you mean? :)

[Twisted Mind]

hmmz yes that i put php script somewhere in mysql and that i return it in php with a query so i can get different php pages on one index.php.

[DrDoc]

So, store PHP code in the database ... retreive it with a query ... and then display that as PHP code?

Sure. Just run eval() on the result.

k thanku ur my biggest friend :D

[Twisted Mind]

this is strange everytime i put an input box in the code (mysql field) it starts whining about unexpected end.... what can this be?

[Twisted Mind]

Anyone?

[Twisted Mind]

Well i found out i can add one thing to the inputbox like <input type='text'> or <input name='name'>
But i cant create something like this :
<input type='text' name='name'> then the script wil say:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in C:\XAMPP\xampp\htdocs\index2.php(21) : eval()'d code on line 10

this is the code in the db:

if (!isset($_GET['action'])){
echo"Action to undertake:<br>
<div style=\"link\">
<a href=\"index2.php?compo=".$_GET['compo']."&action=addcontent\">
Add content</a>
<br></div>";
}else{
if ($_GET['action']=='addcontent')
{
?><input name='sdf' value='fsd'><?
}}

plz some1

[DrDoc]

The code MUST be a "valid script". You cannot escape out of PHP mode. You cannot have incomplete if/else statements.

[php.net...]

[Twisted Mind]

The script is valid, It prints out the script even i close and open php?><? the only problem is i cant add 2 things like name and type to an inputbox in the eval script... and i find this wierd i even tried it with echoing it fully in php. echo "<inputbox type=\'blah\' name=\'bla\'>"; but that gives the error too and i fiend this wierd..

[krakrazor]

The bold section is your problem.

if (!isset($_GET['action'])){
echo"Action to undertake:<br>
<div style=\"link\">
<a href=\"index2.php?compo=".$_GET['compo']."&action=addcontent\">
Add content</a>
<br></div>";
}else{
if ($_GET['action']=='addcontent')
{
?><input name='sdf' value='fsd'><?
}}

Try this:

<?php
if (!isset($_GET['action']))
{
echo "Action to undertake:<br><div style=\"link\"><a href=\"index2.php?compo=".$_GET['compo']."&action=addcontent\">Add content</a><br></div>";
}
else
{
if ($_GET['action']=='addcontent')
{
?><input name='sdf' value='fsd'><?
}
}
?>

if that doesn't work... this will:

if (!isset($_GET['action']))
{
echo "Action to undertake:<br><div style=\"link\"><a href=\"index2.php?compo=".$_GET['compo']."&action=addcontent\">Add content</a><br></div>";
}
else
{
if ($_GET['action']=='addcontent')
{
echo "<input name='sdf' value='fsd'>";
}
}

[Twisted Mind]

Both of them do not work

[Angelis]

Its missing a final?> isnt it?

[Twisted Mind]

no believe me i tried that :P

[DrDoc]

The dollar signs need to be escaped as well

[DrDoc]

if(!isset(\$_GET['action']))
{
echo \"Action to undertake:<br><div style=\\\"link\\\"><a href=\\\"index2.php?compo=\".\$_GET['compo'].\"&action=addcontent\\\">Add content</a><br></div>\";
}
else
{
if (\$_GET['action']=='addcontent')
{
echo \"<input name='sdf' value='fsd'>\";
}
}

So i guess no one is capable of helping me with this?

[coopster]

How are you running your eval? Are you printing it? Assigning it to a variable? eval() has to be passed valid PHP code, including things like terminating statements with a semicolon so the parser doesn't die on the line after the eval(). Properly escaping the code string is only part of a proper eval().

[Twisted Mind]

Im using the echo command on a mysql field wich will be evalled to see the codes check a couple of posts above

[coopster]

None of the code above shows the syntax of the eval statement. I believe you probably have the syntax off a bit, it can be tricky with the eval statement.

keh?
