Hi
I want to read/write constants in a file. To change the config with a browser.
<input type="text" name="testconstant">
output/change in a file
define("TESTCONSTANT", "Hello world.");
Is there a class for that?

Doubt that.
You'll have to write code to open the file and change the contant values by examining the lines.
Regular Expressions can be used for this.

Hi
Regular Expressions can be used for this
OK, but I hope there is already a solution. Found this:
http://pear.php.net/package/Config
Have someone experience with that?

Hi
Another one
http://www.zend.com/manual/function.bco ... nstant.php
But only in PHP5?
I tried it with Regular Expressions. Not my world.
Has anybody a easy solution to handle this?

Filter for it in your config file?
Code: Select all
if(isset($_GET['testconstant'])) {
define("TESTCONSTANT", $_GET['testconstant']);
} else {
define("TESTCONSTANT", "Hello world.");
}
Could use a little data checking too.

OK, thanks, but it must written statically in the config-file, not temporary. And I don't know, the Constants-Name (e.G. TESTCONSTANT) and how much Constants are in the file. It must be dynamic.
I think there is no existent solution for that (after 5 hours Google-Search). Probably I have to learn Regular Expressions. Arrggh.
