I have an index.php page that includes settings.php
in the settings.php file, I have some PHP Variables with data, like phone numbers, names etc.
on my index.php file i am selecting data from a MySQL table and echoing it on the screen, i want to be able to have the variables from the settings.php file in the database so they will echo on the index.php page
how is this possible?
I hope this is what you are looking for.
settings.php
<?php
$valueFromSettings="Settings.php";
Index.php
<?php
include("settings.php");
echo $valueFromSettings; //Prints Settings.php
Alternatively, you can make use of include_once(), require(), require_once() .. all of these are language constructs.. but beware of require() and require_once() as they spit FATAL errors if your PHP file to be included does not exist.
settings.php
<?php
$phone='12345';
//declare all of your variables here
?>
and in index.php get these variables as
<?php
include(settings.php);
$query='SELECT phone FROM table where phone="'.$phone.'"';
?>
Hope it will help you
