Eval worked great for me. I also had to use addslashes and stripslashes because of the html codes that are also in my text.

Thank you

Unfortunately when I store that text in the database and pull it back out and display it, I'm seeing $vacdays or '.$vacdays.' (literally) rather than the current value of $vacdays from PHP. If I simply use: print "You have $vacdays days of vacation"; in my .php page, it works the way I wan...
