Hi...

I want to know if this is possible.

I have a database with an attribute which has in it a SQL statement,
e.g.

select blah from table where key = $x

In a PHP function, I read in the above string into $v.
In that routine, $x is defined.

However, if I print out the string I get the original string, with $x
not being substituted.

What I want to happen is the local value of $x to get substituted into
$v.

Is this possible? If so, how do you do it?

TIA,
Joe
