> Hello! :)
>
> I have a form with a textarea that contains a template e-mail with
> variables in it. I would like to be able to replace those variables
> with values. The variables named in the template are actual variables
> in my script. This doesn't seem to work:
>
> $newmail = preg_replace("/\$(\w+)/e", ${$1}, $template);
>
> ...and neither does anything I've tried to do as far as eval() goes. I
> either get a parse error like this:
>
> Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_VARIABLE' or `'$'' in
> c:\path\file.php on line 16
>
> ...or some other sort of eval() error. Any ideas? TIA! :)
