I have a file linked with require into my program with statements like:

define("_ADDRESS","Address");
define("_CITY","City");

I would like to replace this with a mysql table with these two fields

How can I do that?

Well, if you have all the settings in a DB already, then what I would
do is this.

SELECT param_name, param_value FROM yourTable;

then

while ( list($name, $value) = mysql_fetch_row($results_handler) ) {
    define($name, $value);
}

put this in place of your existing defines and you should be good.


Thanks! Works fine!
I need now a modification for that.

Two values:
SELECT param_name, param_value1, param_value2 FROM yourTable;

IF param_value1 is empty, than it should use param_value2

How can I add this?

Thank you again.

In PHP i would do it like this.

while ( list($name, $value1, $value2) = mysql_fetch_row($results_handler) ) {
        define($name, ( empty($value1) ? $value2 : $value ) );
}
