Menu from MySQL *SOLVED*
Poster: pfpro
Dated: Thursday May 10 2007 - 15:13:57 BST
I try to include the menu (from sql) into my template engine (tbs)
is there any way to store the menu in a string first and display "later", instead of direct echo
like this:
Code:
$mmenu = buildMySQLMenu(1);
echo $mmenu;
echo $mmenu;
thx in advance

If you want to display the menu later you could try moving the echo $mmenu; command down further in your code.
template engine - no echo

Then the answer is no.
What other way is there for getting output into the browser from PHP?

1. Then why did you put 'echo' in your example?
2. Suggestion - chill. Folks here are trying to help, and your snap-back answer, quite frankly, isn't appreciated.
chill, yeah ;)

like i mentioned my template engine echos my output for me
the solution i found is:
Code:
<?
ob_start();
buildMySQLMenu(1);
$mmenu = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
?>
ob_start();
buildMySQLMenu(1);
$mmenu = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
?>
on template side:
Code:
<div style="height:30">
[var.mmenu]
</div>
[var.mmenu]
</div>
i thought the (still) wonderful milonic menu might offer a function for this issue
maybe i didn't describe exactly enough what i was really looking for
keep it poppin'
best regards
phil
