sorry to post to times but i can not edit the other post :|

i have this code but it dose not work.

index.php

<?php

$template = file_get_contents( 'page.php' );
$array = array (     'echo' => 'echo (\'hello\');'
                       
               );
// we have to somehow expand the $template variable, but how?


eval("$template");

?>

page.php

echo 'hello'; $array["echo"]; 

but the $array["echo"]; dose not show the word hello like it should :\

What exactly are you tryin to acheive, if your first post was in-any sense to me I would of helped you. You can't do this -> $array = array ( 'echo' => 'echo (\'hello\');'

);

Okay i suck at this bit of php what i am trying to do is make a template system were you call the page eg: page.php and it has some txt in it like

are you logged in? {$logged}

and in the index or some were have the $logged set as a if($hi == 1) {echo'yes';} else { echo'no';} or some thing like that

if ( $hi === true )
{
    $logged = 'yes';
}
else
{
    $logged = 'no';
}

include_once ( 'page.php' );

include_once ( 'footer.php' );

?>

I have no idea what you are trying to acheive... An echo inside an array?
