I tried to create a simple language function, but I can't get it to work. The idea should be clear. I'm not getting any error messages but it won't show my text either. This is my code:
inc/text.php:
<?php
$show = array(
"welcome" => "Welkom @ ....",
'test' => true
);
function show($foo) {
echo $show[$foo];
}
?>
index.php:
<?php show("welcome"); ?>
It looks to me like you're declaring $show outside of the scope of function show($foo)
either declare $show inside the function or do this:
$show = array(); //blah blah
function show($foo)
{
global $show;
echo $show[$foo];
}
Make $show array global scope within the function, and return the value not echo it
<?php
$show = array(
"welcome" => "Welkom @ ....",
'test' => true
);
function show($foo) {
global $show;
return $show[$foo];
}
?>
<p><?php echo show("welcome"); ?></p>
You need to declare the SHOW array, so it is accesible from the function.
You have sevral methods to do this
Example of declaration inside a function
function show($foo) {
$show = array(
"welcome" => "Welkom @ ....",
'test' => true
);
echo $show[$foo];
}
You don't need a function for that:
<?php echo $show["welcome"]; ?>
That should already do it. Let me know if that is not helpful and why.
