PHP within PHP...

I took over the support of a website that is set up something like
this inside one of the pages:


include_once("header.php");

//to get the content of the page they do this:
$content = mysql_query("select content etc...);

echo $content;
?>

include_once("footer.php");

I am having problems evaluating any php that is used in the mysql
content. Is there a way to get the mysql withing the mysql to run?

Thank you for your time,

Mandragon

Sorry, The question should read:

"Is there a way to get the php withing the echo $htmlcontent to run?"

Re: PHP within PHP...

Of course you are, $content is a resource. The MySQL Query resource.

try this:

$content = mysql_query('bla bla bla');
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($content)) {
$result[] = $row;
}

$content = $result;

Now you can use $content ;).

In answer to your edit...

eval($content); -> This will parse as PHP.

Eval() is evil. Why does $content contain PHP code?
