PHP - Pass A Var From 1 Function To Another

hello
how do i pass a value from 1 function to another

i want to use this part

Code: [Select]
//send the list order to the navigation or list page
$PHL = PhLists::by_listNo($PHGlno);
foreach ($PHL as $PHLs){
$PHLlno = $PHLs->phList_No;
$PHLorb = $PHLs->orderBy;
$PHLord = $PHLs->orderDir;
}


from this very long function.


Code: [Select]

function include_placeHolders($position, $phNo, $pageID){

$langBS = basicSettings::find_by_id(1);

$nH = PhLists::navOrder($PHLlno, $PHLorb, $PHLord);

Hi guys,

I have a trouble with my php snippet, when I insert the var function in the url bar something is like:

http://www.mysite.com/delete.php?favorites&id=0

or

http://www.mysite.com/delete.php?whateveritis&id=0

It doesn't get pass the favorites function to delete the id. It is the same things that it goes for each different function.

Here's the current code:

<?php
Code: [Select]
session_start();
    define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
    define('DB_USER', 'mydbuser');
    define('DB_PASSWORD', 'mydbpass');
    define('DB_DATABASE', 'mydbtablename');

    $errmsg_arr = array();
    $errflag = false;

    $link = mysql_connect(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD);
    if(!$link) {
  die('Failed to connect to server: ' . mysql_error());
    }

    $db = mysql_select_db(DB_DATABASE);
    if(!$db) {

die("Unable to select database");
    }

   function clean($var){

return mysql_real_escape_string(strip_tags($var));
    }
    $favorites = clean($_GET['favorites']);
    $id = clean($_GET['id']);

if($favorites && $id == ''){
   // both are empty
   $errmsg_arr[] = 'favorites id are missing.';
   $errflag = true;
}

    if($errflag) {
  $_SESSION['ERRMSG_ARR'] = $errmsg_arr;
  echo implode('<br />',$errmsg_arr);
   }
   else {
$insert = array();
if(isset($_GET['id'])) {
    $insert[] = 'id = \'' . clean($_GET['id']) .'\'';
}
if(isset($_GET['favorites'])) {
    $insert[] = 'favorites = \'' . clean($_GET['favorites']) . '\'';
}

if($favorites && $id) {
   mysql_query("DELETE FROM favorites WHERE id='$id'");
   $deleted = mysql_affected_rows();
   if($deleted > 0)
   {
  echo "favorites channels is deleted";
   }
   else
   {
  echo("favorites is already deleted");
   }
 }
}
?>
If you do know how to get pass the favorites function, then please say so as i need your help.

Any advice would be much appreicated.

Hi All,

I have a function that i want to pass a variable into so that i can do some SQL on it.

The information that i want to pass into it is a data-id on a button that is used to trigger the function.

The button that will be clicked is this

<div class='modaltrigger btn btn-primary' data-id='$itemId' data-toggle='modal'>Manage</div>

This button is being created by another function.

I would like to know either how i pass the variable from one function to another or how i pass it from the data-id to the function in php.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Im trying to pass a variable ($in_this_instance) into, and then back out of a function.  The variable goes into the function no problem, and is echo'ed out fine.  However the echo after the close of the function, does not give anything out. 

Code: [Select]
$in_this_instance = 'boo';

function in_this_instance($data) {
global $in_this_instance;

echo $in_this_instance;

$in_this_instance = 'hoo';


$rep_val = '[front banner]';

    $test = strpos($data, $rep_val);
    if ($test === false) {
return $data;
    } else {
    return $data;;
    }
}

add_filter('the_content', 'in_this_instance');
echo $in_this_instance;

Could any one give me a pointer please?  Many Thanks!
